Romo was credited with his third hold in a win over the Athletics on Monday, firing a scoreless two-thirds of an inning during which he issued a walk.
EDGE Analysis
Romo has quickly logged five appearances since coming off a month-long stay on the injured list May 13, recording a pair of holds while posting scoreless efforts in four of those outings. The seemingly ageless veteran now sports a sterling 1.35 ERA and 0.75 WHIP across 6.2 innings over seven appearances overall.

Romo secured his second hold in a win over the Mets on Sunday, firing a perfect seventh inning.
EDGE Analysis
One game after logging his first appearance in over a month due to a shoulder injury, Romo was right back out there and generated an efficient 13-pitch outing. The 39-year-old appears primed for plenty of work moving forward now that he's apparently past his health issues.

Romo, activated from the injured list Friday, fired a perfect ninth inning in a loss to the Mets on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran right-hander could hardly have been sharper in his first appearance since April 11, firing four of his five pitches for strikes. The veteran has opened his Mariners tenure with three straight scoreless efforts.

Romo (shoulder) was activated from the 10-day injured list Friday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran right-hander has been sidelined since April 11 with inflammation in his right shoulder, and he'll rejoin the active roster after making one rehab appearance with Triple-A Tacoma. Romo appeared in two games prior to the injury and picked up a hold over two scoreless frames, and he figures to fill a late-inning role now that he's healthy, though save chance are likely to be infrequent.

Romo (shoulder) threw a 25-pitch simulated game against Ichiro Suzuki on Friday and received rave reviews from manager Scott Servais, the Associated Press reports.
EDGE Analysis
It was Romo's second throwing session in the last four days, and Servais came away from it saying that his veteran reliever looked ready to return. Romo's target return date has been during the Mariners' current homestand, and given this latest development, it seems that will come to pass.

Romo (shoulder) threw a 26-pitch bullpen session Tuesday, Shannon Drayer of 710 ESPN Seattle reports.
EDGE Analysis
President of baseball operations Jerry Dipoto was optimistic that Romo would be able to return sometime during the Mariners' homestand that begins Thursday, but the right-hander is scheduled to throw a live BP in the coming days. While it's a positive development that he'll be able to face hitters, the Mariners will determine whether the right-hander requires a rehab assignment based on how he feels after his live BP, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports. While his status for Seattle's homestand is in question, Romo is trending in the right direction overall.

Mariners president of baseball operations Jerry Dipoto said Saturday that Romo (shoulder) could return during the Mariners' upcoming homestead, which is scheduled to begin May 5, Corey Brock of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Romo resumed playing catch recently and remains in a throwing program. Although the right-hander was initially expected to have a minimal stay on the IL, he'll likely be forced to miss nearly a month once he's ultimately cleared to return to game action. It wouldn't be surprising to see Romo begin a rehab assignment early next week before rejoining the major-league club.

Romo (shoulder) recently resumed playing catch in Seattle but remains without a clear timeline to return from the 10-day injured list, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Romo initially planned to spend the minimum amount of time on the IL after he was deactivated April 13, but he's made slower progress than anticipated as he works his way back from right shoulder inflammation. The fact that he hasn't been shut down from throwing is encouraging, but since he has yet to get back on the mound more than two weeks after landing on the IL, Romo will likely need to head out on a minor-league rehab assignment before rejoining the big club.

Romo's (shoulder) stay on the injured list should be right about the minimum 10 days according to manager Scott Servais, Joey Pollizze of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Servais noted Romo was taking anti-inflammatories for the next several days, which should help kickstart the healing process. The right-hander expressed to Servais he expected to be "good to go" by the end of his IL stint, and the Mariners' skipper placed some faith in that assessment by noting players of Romo's experience know their bodies very well by this point in their career.

Romo was placed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with right shoulder inflammation, retroactive to April 12.
EDGE Analysis
Romo presumably experienced the inflammation after delivering a scoreless inning during Monday's matchup with Minnesota. It's unclear exactly how long the veteran right-hander will be sidelined, though he'll be eligible to be activated April 22 game against the Royals.
