Román came over in the Earl Harper trade and was the KEY piece to the deal being done. Pittsburgh Swag owner Dustin Ableidinger was very reluctant (as he should) to include the young stud, but I wasn't willing to move Harper without him.

H'ville's scout Norman Gray has him pegged to be a 5* stud "who could be one of the dominate hitters in baseball for the next 10 years. Has practically no flaws in his hitting. If he can stay healthy, he could end up in the Hall of Fame."
Román has well above contact potential and while he is 6'3 and 225 lbs at 17 he still has to develop his power swing, but has "top notch power potential. Superior bat speed, and equally good at turning on inside and outside pitches," according to Gray. He sports an elite eye and is "very patient, and draws plenty of walks. Really works the pitcher hard." While his defense isn't elite he will be among league leaders at his position.
