Phillies' Aaron Nola: Early-season woes continue in loss
Rotowire
Nola (0-4) took the loss Wednesday against the Giants after giving up seven runs (six earned) on nine hits and four walks in 5.1 innings. He struck out eight.
Having already struggled to begin the season, the veteran right-hander was tagged for four runs on four hits and two walks in the opening inning. More trouble arose in the fourth inning, when the Giants plated two more runs and chased Nola from the game after he threw 99 pitches. Nola could have a tough time improving on his 5.82 ERA and 1.66 WHIP over 21.2 innings (four starts) in his next scheduled start, which comes on the road against the Mets early next week, but fantasy managers should stay patient with the one-time All-Star.

Phillies' Aaron Nola: Takes loss in third straight start
Rotowire
Nola (0-3) took the loss after allowing two runs on five hits and four walks in five innings Friday against the Cardinals. He struck out seven.
Although the veteran right-hander threw at least five innings in his third straight start and gave up a season-low two runs, he tossed just one clean inning and struggled mightily in a two-run fifth frame while allowing five batters to reach base in the inning. Through 16.1 innings this year, Nola has a shaky 5.51 ERA and 1.41 WHIP with 17 punchouts. Fantasy managers should stay patient with the one-time All-Star, who'll look to get into the win column in his next scheduled start in the middle of next week at home against the Giants.

Phillies' Aaron Nola: Logs quality start in loss
Rotowire
Nola (0-2) took the loss against the Dodgers on Saturday, allowing three runs on seven hits and one walk with two strikeouts over six innings.
Nola battled against the vaunted Dodgers but was burned by a two-run homer in the second inning and a solo shot in the sixth. The veteran righty managed only nine swinging strikes on 97 pitches and has now yielded eight total runs on four long balls through 11.1 innings this year. He'll carry a 6.35 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 10:1 K:BB into a road matchup with the Cardinals next weekend.

Phillies' Aaron Nola: Allows two homers in loss
Rotowire
Nola (0-1) took the loss against the Nationals on Sunday, allowing five runs on six hits and no walks with eight strikeouts over 5.1 innings.
Nola cruised through three innings before surrendering all five runs on home runs in the fourth and sixth frames. While the veteran remains one of the game's most durable arms, he has allowed 30-plus homers in each of the past two seasons. He'll look to bounce back in a tough matchup against the Dodgers next weekend.
Nola struck out two and allowed one hit and no walks over two scoreless innings during Saturday's Grapefruit League game against the Tigers.
According to Todd Zolecki of MLB.com, the right-hander was focused on commanding his fastball and changeup and completely avoided using his knuckle-curve, which was his most-used pitch last year at 32.9 percent. Opposing batters hit .279 against his changeup in 2024, and turning that into a more reliable offering could help him improve upon the 3.57 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 197:50 K:BB he posted across 33 regular-season starts last season.
