Zack Wheeler Hoping To Bounce Back Saturday
3 years agoPhiladelphia Phillies starting pitcher Zack Wheeler is listed as the team's probable starter on Saturday against the Milwaukee Brewers. Wheeler has made only two starts this season after dealing with right shoulder soreness during the offseason and spring training. Wheeler has not looked the same so far in 2022 after posting a career-low 2.78 ERA, a 1.01 WHIP, a career-best 29.1% strikeout rate, and a 5.4% walk rate over 213 1/3 innings pitched in 2021. Over his two starts in 2022, Wheeler has posted an unsightly 9.39 ERA, 1.83 WHIP, and a 6:4 K:BB in 7 2/3IP. The Phillies' ace will look to get back on track against a struggling Brewers offense that is batting just .207 as a team heading into action on Friday.
