The Boston Red Sox's 2022 first-round pick is lighting up Double-A after a slow start to his professional career.
The Boston Red Sox have built a deep farm system in the past few years, especially in terms of position player talent.
However, their 2022 first-rounder hasn't had the smoothest road through his first two-plus seasons in Minor League Baseball, causing his prospect status to take some hits along the way. However, after a disappointing first year and a half in the farm system, Romero is catching fire. And that could well force the Red Sox's hand to give him a shot at the big-league level sometime soon.
In 59 games with High-A Greenville, Romero had a .271/.319/.498 slash line, while belting 10 home runs. He had just one longball in his first two minor-league seasons. Then, two weeks ago, Romero earned a promotion to Double-A, and has elevated his play even farther.
