From Rotoworld: Romano will be recalled to start Thursday in Colorado. Romano struggled in a spot start for the Reds back in April and while he holds a 3.06 ERA at Triple-A Louisville, it’s come along with a 28/14 K/BB ratio over 47 innings. He’s a poor streaming option at Coors.
Chatwood allowed six runs – four earned – and seven hits with three walks and six strikeouts over 6 1/3 innings in a loss Saturday at Arizona. Chatwood was slightly better in this outing than in previous appearances, as his walks weren’t nearly as numerous, but the result was still the same. He slipped to 6-9 overall and he hasn’t won in four outings dating back to June 8. He’ll look to right the ship in his next scheduled start Thursday opposite Jackson Stephens and the Reds.
