Ricky Romero pitched one-third of an inning Wednesday, allowing three runs and taking the loss to the Rays.
It was a quick hook for the lefty after he exited his last start with forearm stiffness. There was no word of an injury Wednesday, so we'll assume it was just flat-out poor pitching that led to Romero's exit. The Jays brought Romero up to take the place of the injured Josh Johnson, but it's worth wondering how much longer they'll roll with him in Johnson's absence. His spot in the rotation is due to pitch again on Tuesday, but whether it'll be Romero taking the mound is still in question.
