Phillips

He was scoreless through four, but allowed a triple and homer in the top of the fifth, then left two inherited runners in the sixth that both came around to score courtesy of Cade Gibson giving up a walk, hit by pitch and two-run single in short succession. Phillips has a 3.94 ERA and 1.31 WHIP in his last seven starts and continues to be about a 50/50 bet to actually pitch deep enough into the game to qualify for a win. He’s slated to face the Phillies next week.

Phillips was incredibly fortunate to just give up the one run in this outing. The Angels were hitting laser beams all night long, they just kept finding gloves. That is, besides a solo home run from Mike Trout. Phillips has shown some intriguing stuff as a starting pitcher, but not enough to have earned our trust yet. He’ll take a 4.45 ERA, 40 strikeouts, and 20 walks through 58 2/3 innings as a starter into his next outing against the Pirates at home.

Both runs came on Tyrone Taylor’s homer in the second. Phillips went out to start the sixth, but he was pulled after Bo Bichette’s leadoff single. John King replaced him and got a popup and a double play to end the inning. The win was just Phillips’ third in 12 starts and 16 relief appearances, though he has a nice 3.53 ERA. He would have been a candidate to return to the pen soon if the Marlins were buying at the deadline, but since that seems off the table, he’ll probably remain a starter and face the Angels next weekend.

Phillips gave up three hits, walked two and struck out five. Pitching against the team he made his MLB debut with in 2024, the 28-year-old right-hander from Lumberton, New Jersey delivered a solid start. Phillips allowed a two-run homer to Bryce Harper in the first inning, but otherwise held the Phillies scoreless for five innings. His ERA is 3.52 as a swingman for the Marlins this year. Phillips is lined up to face the Mets on the road on Saturday.

Phillips allowed five hits, walked one and struck out two. He exited in the fifth after a Javier Sanoja error put a runner on base with one out, and the Astros went on to score three times in the inning. Phillips has been adequate as a starter for the most part, but it’d probably be best for the Marlins’ postseason hopes if he could resume working out of the pen. It’s just not likely to happen in the short term after Max Meyer’s injury. He’ll likely face the Phillies on Monday.

Phillips gave up four hits, lowering his ERA to 3.28. Miami’s rotation has dealt with several injuries this season, thrusting him into a starting role. He has now pitched at least five innings in five of his past seven starts. However, the low strikeout rate and shaky peripherals prevent him from being a fantasy option outside of NL-only formats.

Phillips walked two and struck out two batters in the contest. His offense stated him to a six-run lead in the top half of the first inning, and all Phillips had to do was keep the train on the tracks to earn a victory. Unfortunately, he couldn’t do so. He served up a two-run blast to Nick Kurtz in the second inning and a bases-clearing double to Jeff McNeil in the fourth before ultimately exiting. Phillips got eight whiffs on 71 pitches on the night, registering an uninspiring CSW of just 23 percent. He’ll try to finish the first half strong as he brings a 3.52 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and a 52/32 K/BB ratio (69 innings) into Thursday’s showdown against the Mariners.

Phillips gave up a two-run homer to Bryan Torres, and unfortunately, that was enough for him to pick up the loss with the Marlins providing just one run of support in the contest. He only picked up a single strikeout, but he was able to limit the hard contact and didn’t issue a walk. Phillips has bounced back nicely since he was clobbered for eight runs against the Phillies two starts ago, and he’s lowered his ERA to a healthy 3.02 in the process. He’ll be a risky streaming option against the A’s on Friday, with that start taking place in Sacramento.

Phillips gave up five hits, including a two-run homer to Ezequiel Duran in the fourth inning, which accounted for all of the damage against him. He struck out four and issued three walks. He’ll close out a two-start week with a road matchup against the Cardinals at Busch Stadium on Sunday.

Let’s start with the ugly as Phillips coughed up six hits, including three home runs. He struck out four and also walked three batters. The 28-year-old righty has done a respectable job filling the injury-related void in Miami’s rotation, but he’s not exactly a relevant fantasy option since he offers almost zero strikeout potential. He’ll take the ball against the Giants on Sunday to wrap up a two-start week.
