Toronto Blue Jays Sign Future Ace.
Ricky Romero just closed an agreement with the Toronto Blue Jays that would pay him just over 30 million dollars for the following 5 seasons. That is a vital contract deal for the Toronto Blue Jays.
At only 25, Romero has had a good year for the Jays in only his second season in the big leagues.
The deal is a bit of a risk considering Romero has not much major league experience. Romero is seen by the Blue Jays as a future ace that they wanted to lock up under fair terms. Romero’s improving physical and emotional control and level of competition pleased the Blue Jays in making their offer.
Romero ties Shaun Marcum atop the club win totals with 10 each. Morrow and Cecil each have 9 wins. Many teams in baseball would love to have their top 4 starters under 30 years of age. The Toronto Blue Jays top 4 starters are all in their mid twenties with Marcum being the elder at 28 and Cecil the junior at 24.
Imagine sailing a luxury yacht.
