Ranger Suárez finished off his 2024 season Friday down in D.C. The results were nauseating, leaving the Philadelphia Phillies wondering what to make of Suárez with the postseason starting in mere days.
Suárez was looking to get another solid start under his belt and boost his confidence before the NLDS. This was a perfect opportunity to go against a Washington Nationals team that had conceded their season and even demoted shortstop C.J. Abrams.
Phillies definitely haven’t fixed Ranger Suárez after disastrous final start
That wish vanished quickly as Suárez gave up seven hits, two walks and six earned runs in just two innings of work. The Phillies lost 9-1 and potentially fumbled their last chance at the No. 1 seed. The loss finished Suárez’s season at 12-8 on the year with a 3.46 ERA in 27 starts. He also had 145 strikeouts and a 1.20 WHIP in 150 2/3 innings.
Not the best showing in the nation’s capital… 😳…
