The Philadelphia Phillies secured a key rotation piece by agreeing to a five-year, $135M extension with Jesus Luzardo, who was set to enter free agency after this season. Despite a challenging 2024 marked by injuries and a 5.00 ERA, Luzardo rebounded in 2025 with a solid 3.92 ERA and 216 strikeouts. His extension complements Aaron Nola’s recent seven-year deal and Cristopher Sanchez’s extended control, ensuring the Phillies’ rotation remains strong for the long term.
