The hard-throwing right-hander suffered the injury under unusual circumstances, stepping in a hole in the ground while walking his dog.

Manager Charlie Montoyo said Romano is currently day-to-day and the team believes he will be ready for the start of the season next week against the Texas Rangers in Toronto. Romano is scheduled to throw a bullpen on Friday and Montoyo says the club will proceed from there.
