Zack Wheeler embraced another chance to square off with Chris Sale. The first meeting between the top-two finishers in last year's NL Cy Young Award race didn't quite live up to expectations. Each ace

Philadelphia Phillies manager Rob Thomson and ace pitcher Zack Wheeler had a humorous interaction before their doubleheader kicked off.

It's never fun trading a top pitching prospect, especially one who showed as much upside as Abel in an MLB uniform. The Phillies would be running the risk of watching him develop into a frontline arm with another team. While that'd sting, the Phillies are a team in World Series contention. They need to act like it by trading a top prospect.

I’ve never seen J.T. Realmuto so hopeless at the plate. It’s as if he’s lost his timing; as if he cannot recognize pitches out of the pitcher’s hand; as if he forgets the scouting report and pitchers’ tendencies.

The Braves are road underdogs (+139) at the Phillies (-164). The Philadelphia Phillies will hand the ball to Zack Wheeler (6-1, 2.42 ERA), who is looking for win No. 7 on the season, and the Braves will turn to Chris Sale (2-3, 3.36 ERA).

With MLB All-Star voting set to open up soon, several Phils are putting together strong arguments to represent the NL in the Midsummer Classic.

Zack Wheeler is not a fan of the Athletics' temporary home as they await their new stadium in Las Vegas. The Philadelphia Phillies pitcher said that the hard pitching mound threw him off in Friday's win over the A's.

Wheeler won't start as scheduled Wednesday against Atlanta since the game was postponed due to inclement weather, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports. The contest will be made up via a split doubleheader Thursday,

The floodgates suddenly opened. Matt Olson and Austin Riley doubled, Ozzie Albies’ fly ball snuck over the right-field ball, and the Braves grabbed a 4-0 lead. The flurry snapped Wheeler’s scoreless innings streak at 26.
