MLB Sends Zack Wheeler Message After Phillies Game
MLB Sends Zack Wheeler Message After Phillies Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Philadelphia Phillies right-handed starting pitcher Zack Wheeler is in his eleventh major-league season after debuting with the division rival New York Mets in 2013.

He's earned All-Star Game appearances in 2021 and 2024, finishing as the NL Cy Young runner-up in both seasons. In the postseason, Wheeler has elevated to another level, posting a 4–3 record with a 2.18 ERA and 77 strikeouts in 12 career postseason appearances, quickly becoming a fan favorite and the most dependable arm in the rotation.

In March 2024, the 35-year-old veteran signed a three-year, $126 million extension with the Phillies and has made clear his intention to retire when the deal concludes.
