What to do with Taijuan Walker and Spencer Turnbull

The Phillies starting rotation has been one of the true positive developments of the 2024 season thus far. They enter their three-game series with the woeful, three-win Chicago White Sox with the best ERA in the National League (2.54), 3rd-best in baseball, as well as a NL-best 1.06 WHIP, ground ball rate, and .207 batting average against.

The top four starters are locked into place. Zack Wheeler, Aaron Nola, Ranger Suarez and Cristopher Sanchez have been exceedingly effective, as has No. 5 starter Spencer Turnbull, who gets the ball for the Phils tonight against the Chicago in the series opener.
