I wonder if Matheny will use the bullpen like TLR.Cardinals signed LHP J.C. Romero to a one-year contract.
No word yet on the financial terms of the deal. Romero posted a rough 4.01 ERA and 19/15 K/BB ratio in 24 2/3 overall innings this past year for the Phillies and Rockies, but he's still dominant against left-handed hitters and should fit nicely into the St. Louis bullpen.
