Andrew Romine Opts Out Of Contract

By Connor Byrne | March 25, 2021 at 9:00pm CDT

Utility player Andrew Romine has exercised the opt-out clause in his minor league contract with the Twins, per an announcement from team director of communications Dustin Morse. He is now a free agent.

Romine began with the Angels in 2010 and has also played with the Tigers, Mariners and Rangers in parts of 10 seasons since then. The 35-year-old has slashed .235/.291/.301 – good for an uninspiring wRC+ of 63 – with 10 home runs in 1,327 plate appearances. But Romine has shown off impressive defensive versatility, having appeared at every infield and outfield position during his career.

Romine’s ability to play all over the diamond could attract other teams now that he is back on the open market. However, the Twins haven’t ruled out bringing him back on a different contract, according to manager Rocco Baldelli (via Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com).

    Yankees are going to be the 7th best team in the league and find their way to the WS. AL is a joke.

      He did an acid trip while the Yankees were winning the World Series, and that moment, scorched into every piece of gray matter, keeps looping in his fried brain, day after day.

      He walks down the street and everyone he sees does the final call of John Sterling: Theeeeeeee Yankees WIN!!! So he naturally covers his ears, looks away from everyone with a pulse and screeches –

        That honestly sounds terrifying. So horrifying that it gives his comment more credibility then it actually deserves.

    Cubs? He might want to play with his brother Austin.

    Andrew is a decent player who can give you a big hit every once in a while. Long while, but he’s fine.
