With the season well underway, it\u2019s worth pointing out that a former Blue Jays All-Star is doing well with his new team.<\/p>\n

Following Toronto, Romano spent one season with the Phillies<\/a> (before the Angels and Rockies).<\/p>\n

With how he\u2019s played in Colorado, the 33-year-old could end up being an intriguing free agent for a contender to look at over the offseason.<\/p>\n
