Aaron Nola is struggling in the early 2025 MLB season, starting with an 0-5 record and a 6.5 ERA, attributed to a dip in fastball velocity, which fell to 88-89 mph during a recent outing. Despite a quality start being interrupted in the seventh inning, Nola emphasized the need for better command and hopes his velocity will improve as the weather warms. Manager Rob Thomson and teammate Trea Turner express confidence in Nola’s ability to bounce back, noting he has successfully navigated similar challenges in the past.
