Philadelphia Phillies

Aaron Nola had a rough outing in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Blue Jays.

Fantasy Impact: He allowed four earned runs on nine hits and struck out seven over 5.2 innings, taking his third loss of the season. This performance slightly tarnishes what has been a solid season for Nola, pushing his ERA to 3.86 and WHIP to 1.22. Despite the setback, his strikeout numbers remain strong, and his control was evident as he issued no walks. However, the increase in hits allowed this game could be a concern if it turns into a trend. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on his next few starts for any signs of lingering issues but shouldn't panic just yet given his overall solid metrics this season.

Fantasy Impact: Bohm is back at third base and hitting cleanup after getting the day off on Tuesday. He is off to a blazing start to the season, hitting .349 with four home runs and 32 RBI.

Whit Merrifield is not in the Phillies lineup on Wednesday against Toronto.

Fantasy Impact: Merrifield collected one hit in Tuesday's win over the Blue Jays. Brandon Marsh moves over to left field in his absence.

Cristopher Sanchez delivered a strong performance in the Phillies' 10-1 victory over the Blue Jays on Tuesday, allowing just one earned run on six hits and two walks while striking out five across seven innings.

Fantasy Impact: This outing is a bright spot in what has been a solid season for Sanchez, lowering his ERA to 2.97. Fantasy managers should note his consistent innings and strikeout potential, making him a viable option.

Bryce Harper went 3-for-3 with a home run, four RBI, and two runs scored in the Phillies' dominant 10-1 victory over the Blue Jays.

Fantasy Impact: This game continues a positive uptick in Harper's season. He's homered in three straight games and is now batting .263 with nine homers and 28 RBI through 33 games.

Zack Wheeler dazzled on the mound Monday, tossing seven scoreless innings, allowing just four hits and one walk while striking out 11 in the Phillies' 6-1 victory over the Giants.

Fantasy Impact: This performance underscores Wheeler's dominance this season, as he now boasts a sparkling 1.64 ERA and a 0.89 WHIP through eight starts. His 11.5 K/9 ratio and 4.85 strikeout-to-walk ratio are particularly enticing for fantasy managers, indicating high strikeout potential with controlled walk rates. Fantasy managers should continue to view him as a top-tier starting pitcher option, capable of anchoring any rotation.

Kyle Schwarber had a productive outing in the Phillies' 6-1 victory over the Giants, going 2-for-4 with a home run, two runs scored, one RBI, a walk, and a strikeout.

Fantasy Impact: This performance slightly lifts his modest .214 batting average and adds to his season totals, now including 9 home runs and 22 RBI. Fantasy managers should value him for his power contributions but remain wary of the batting average drag. His consistent home run pace keeps him relevant in most fantasy formats, especially those that heavily reward power hitting.

Jose Alvarado allowed one run, but still secured the save on Sunday against the Giants.

Fantasy Impact: Alvarado allowed a home run to Jakson Reetz with one out, but he recorded the next two outs to secure his seventh save on the season.

Taijuan Walker allowed three runs on five hits over 6 1/3 innings on Sunday against the Giants.

Fantasy Impact: Walker added seven strikeouts and one walk in a quality start and the win. He'll look to keep it up in his next outing against the Marlins.

Ranger Suarez turned in another solid performance in the Phillies' 14-3 rout of the Giants on Saturday.

Fantasy Impact: He allowed three earned runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out six over six innings. Despite the three runs, Suarez's season ERA slightly increased to 1.72, but his overall dominance remains evident with a stellar 0.72 WHIP and a 7.67 strikeout-to-walk ratio. His ability to maintain a low BABIP (.214) suggests some luck, but his high K/9 rate and FIP (2.92) indicate that his success is largely skill-based. Fantasy managers should continue to view Suarez as a top-tier starting option, as his performance shows no signs of significant regression.

Nick Castellanos went 1-for-4 with an RBI and scored twice as the Phillies demolished the Giants 14-3.

Fantasy Impact: Despite the team's offensive explosion, Castellanos's personal season continues to be underwhelming, with a batting average lingering at .183 through 34 games. His performance in this game, although contributing to the team's victory, does little to reassure fantasy managers given his lackluster season stats, including a low .222 wOBA and .233 BABIP. Owners might keep him benched until he shows more consistent signs of breaking out of his slump.

Bryson Stott went 2-for-3 with two RBI and two runs scored in the Phillies' dominant 14-3 victory over the Giants.

Fantasy Impact: His performance included two walks, bolstering his on-base percentage. Despite a modest season batting average of .240, Stott's ability to contribute in multiple categories was on full display in this game. His season totals now include 23 hits and 16 RBI over 30 games, with a wOBA of .311 indicating a decent offensive contribution when considering his overall contact and power metrics. Fantasy managers should note his multi-faceted ability to score and drive in runs, making him a potentially valuable asset in deeper leagues or as a fill-in option based on matchup considerations.

Fantasy Impact: Turner left Friday's game early due to his hamstring and now goes to the IL with what could be a lengthy absence. Kody Clemens was recalled from Triple-A in a corresponding move, while Edmundo Sosa will likely get the bulk of starts at shortstop while Turner is out.

Brandon Marsh went 1-for-4 with two RBI and a stolen base in the Phillies' narrow 4-3 victory over the Giants.

Fantasy Impact: Despite driving in a couple of crucial runs and swiping a base, Marsh's day was marred by three strikeouts, highlighting an ongoing issue with his contact rate this season. His current .265 batting average and .336 wOBA are respectable, but his high strikeout rate of 0.346 continues to be a concern for fantasy managers. The stolen base was a nice touch, adding some value, but Marsh needs to cut down on strikeouts and improve his on-base skills to truly enhance his fantasy stock.
