Ranger Suarez is set to make his 2025 major league debut for the Phillies against the Diamondbacks after being cleared following a successful bullpen session. Manager Rob Thomson noted that Suarez, who started strong in 2024 but struggled with back issues later, has completed four rehab starts with impressive stats, including 24 strikeouts over 16 2/3 innings. Additionally, the Phillies are considering a six-man rotation as Taijuan Walker continues to pitch in Suarez’s absence, while Cristopher Sanchez returned from injury in a recent win over the Nationals.
