Sergio Romo

Sergio Romo (elbow) will not return to Giants before Thursday

San Francisco Giants relief pitcher Sergio Romo (elbow) won't be activated from the disabled list before Thursday.

What It Means:

Romo experienced some fatigue after making back-to-back rehab appearances last week at Triple-A Sacramento. But it doesn't sound like a major setback, and Romo is actually slated to pitch this Monday and Tuesday at High-A San Jose before possibly returning to the Giants on Thursday. The setup man has been on the disabled list since April 14 with a flexor muscle strain in his right arm.

Romo is coming off of a strong 2015 campaign in which he posted a 2.17 SIERA, 30.9 percent strikeout rate and 4.4 percent walk rate, all decidedly better than his career averages. He has given up one hit (a one-run homer) in 3 1/3 innings this season.
