Buster Olney of ESPN likes JoJo Romero to the Mariners
January 18, 2026
This is kind of surprising, but it shows that maybe Donovan and Romero could be a package deal. I hadn't thought of Romero as a fit for the Mariners. What do you think?

Makes perfect sense to me. Their bullpen imploded in the ALCS at the end
In fact, the arm I want is Jurrangelo Cijntje, because he’s the SWITCH PITCHER. I mean, cmon, watching this guy would be MUST SEE tv and there’s so little reason to watch for the next 2 years, so this would inject something into what might be the bleakest period of Cardinal baseball in our lifetimes.
Mariners are my second team, I don’t think they need lefty so Olney didn’t do his homework. They have two good ones.
Making moves!
Everyone always needs more pitching, and a lefty reliever is super valuable in the playoffs

Package it and get an arm.
