Perhaps no one on the Phillies roster benefitted more from the addition of Zack Wheeler in 2020 than Zach Eflin, and Eflin is in a prime position to get even better in 2021. More importantly, he’s going to have a very big impact on how the team fares this season. A strong front end of the rotation will be important for a Phillies team that finished just one game out of a playoff spot in 2020, and Eflin is going to be a major factor in that.
What could go right in 2021?
The best possible thing that could happen for Eflin, and the Phillies, is that he continues to progress the way he did last year.
