Great, I just dropped Romo last week in the MtM to pick up Rodney. Genius.

structural damage? there is no hope for us beard owners right? this seems like a no doubt dropper, but would love to hear from some other beard owners.

we didnt get a chance to back him up with romo. any chance it could be someone else? feels like it should be romo, but should be is often not always what will be.

thanks all.. and condolences to other beard owners. lets find him and shave him.

Drafted Romo in 3/4 leagues anticipating Wilson getting hurt...avoided Wilson like the plague...at least I made one good decision...

Romo is available in 30% of all leagues right now. If Santiago went in the 300 and 400's last week in a FAAB with a relative closer glut of Rodney, HRod, Lidge, Broxton, Aceves, and even Marshall on top of Santiago each available in multiple leagues, what does Romo go for this week as the sole available option for those who missed out last week? I think I'm steering clear of this mess and just having a drink in condolences to myself for having dropped Romo last week. Timing is everything in this world.

What a crazy early season of injuries so far this year. I thought last year was extreme.

Romo had an elbow issue as well last season and into ST. He was 10 rds cheaper, but I felt he was an equal or bigger injury risk so I wasn't anxious to grab him as a backup. SF has a lot of good pen arms, he wasn't/isn't a shoe-in to close. They have 3 guys that have been used in that role.

I suppose Casilla, Affeldt, and Hembree are all possibilities. It will be interesting to see if there's a save opportunity today or tomorrow and would probably save a few FAAB dollars for a few bidders.

I do realize that, but felt Romo had value either way, and is a good bet to close now...we'll see how it all works out.

Romo's by far the best pitcher in that pen. If they go committee, it'll only be a matter of time before he seizes the job. Honestly, the only possibility I see of Romo not ending up with the role is if they Clippard him, which is certainly a possibility.

Seizing job or seeing Dr Andrews, which comes first?

As KJ Duke implies, Romo's elbow is a ticking time bomb....Be great if a lot of people spent 300-500 on him...

I drafted Wilson as my # 2 RP in both the Main and the 1000 Slow and this is a pretty large kick to the stones, but I was lucky enough to grab Alfredo Aceves in both of those leagues. If Joe Nathan joins the growing list of closers to hit the DL or lose his job because he sucks, my Mike Adams pick in both of those leagues could also be helpful.
Crazy game, the game of Closers!!!
