BIOGRAPHY

Jhon Romero was born January 17, 1995, in Cartagena, Colombia. He is a pitcher in the MLB.

Hours before the Major League Baseball trade deadline on July 31, 2018, the Cubs traded Romero to the Washington Nationals for Brandon Kintzler.

In the minor leagues in 2021, Romero advanced from the Double-A Harrisburg Senators to the Triple-A Rochester Red Wings. Across those two levels, he put up a 2.62 ERA while appearing in 38 games, all of them as a reliever. On September 23, 2021, the Nationals selected Romero's contract from Rochester and promoted him to the major leagues for the first time. Romero made his major league debut the following day against the Cincinnati Reds, pitching a scoreless inning of relief.
