Luis Miguel Romero (born April 23, 1994) is a Cuban professional baseball pitcher in the Oakland Athletics organization.

Romero played for Guantánamo in the Cuban National Series from 2012 to 2016. He signed with the Oakland Athletics as a free agent on February 1, 2017.[177][178]

Romero's first affiliated season was split between the rookie-level AZL Athletics, the Single-A Beloit Snappers, and the High-A Stockton Ports, where he accumulated a 4.88 ERA in 14 total appearances. In 2018, Romero split the year between Stockton and the Double-A Midland RockHounds, pitching to a 3.94 ERA with 66 strikeouts in 59.1 innings pitched across 44 appearances. Romero spent the 2019 season with the Triple-A Las Vegas Aviators, recording a 3.96 ERA with 81 strikeouts across 45 contests.[179] Romero did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[180] The Athletics added him to their 40-man roster following the 2020 season on November 20, 2020.[35]

Romero was assigned to Triple-A Las Vegas in 2021, but struggled to a 6.27 ERA in 28 appearances for the team. On September 8, 2021, Romero was promoted to the major leagues for the first time. However, he spent 13 days on the active roster without appearing in a game and was optioned back to Triple-A on September 21.[181] This earned him the distinction of being a phantom ballplayer, having spent time on the major league team's active roster without having a major league appearance. On March 27, 2022, it was announced that Romero would be optioned to Triple-A Las Vegas to begin the 2022 season.[182] He was designated for assignment on April 21, 2022.
