DateQuestionAnswer
2019-12-09 13:00:00 (link to chat)Knowing how risky it was at the time, and how it has panned out now, what will the Nationals do with Seth Romero?
(Beckett from Baltimore)
Send him back to Potomac or Hagerstown to log innings and see where you are. (Washington Nationals Top 10 Chat)
2018-07-16 19:00:00 (link to chat)Any low minors pitchers you like the upside of in particular?
(Steve from NJ)
Seth Romero is still a huge upside arm that we're forgetting about because he hasn't gotten his act together yet. (Jarrett Seidler)
2018-02-05 12:00:00 (link to chat)3 of the guys in the 101 must battle the Shield in a 6-man tag. Who do you select to match up with Rollins, Reigns, and Ambrose?
(Entropy from Boulder )
Vladito is the hot tag here obviously. I'll go with Monte Harrison for the general athleticism, and Seth Romero for...other reasons. (Top 101 with Jeffrey Paternostro)
2018-02-05 12:00:00 (link to chat)What got Seth Romero on this list? Did he raise his stock on or off the field in pro ball, or was he a top-101 caliber guy coming into the draft?
(Andrew from DC)
It was top ten pick stuff. The stuff was still there in the pros. This can go bad, but the makeup concerns here are different than say Delvin Perez I think. (Top 101 with Jeffrey Paternostro)
2018-02-05 12:00:00 (link to chat)Who else was considered for #69?
(Eric from Vegas)
I think the other candidates in that range would have been Heliot Ramos, Kilome, Alcantara, Seth Romero, maybe Seuly Matias (Top 101 with Jeffrey Paternostro)
2017-09-29 12:00:00 (link to chat)Would Seth Romero be a top-100 prospects without the character concerns? How good is his stuff?
(AJ from Providence)
The reports from the Penn were good and he didn't punch anyone. If you think he's a presumptive top 10 or 15 pick on merit, that's about a Top 101 guy. (Jeffrey Paternostro)
