Fri May 26 202301:53Aaron Nola Rocked For Five Earned Runs In No-Decision
Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Aaron Nola took a no-decision on Thursday when he allowed five runs on eight hits to go along with seven strikeouts and two walks over six innings in an 8-5 loss to the Atlanta Braves. Nola was facing the Braves for the first time this season and it got ugly right off the bat as Austin Riley took him deep for a two-run shot in the bottom of the first. He then served up another home run, a solo shot to Marcell Ozuna, in the second inning and was then victimized by Riley again for a solo home run in the fifth. The 29-year-old did punch out seven but allowed five earned runs for the second time this season. The ugly outing has his ERA up to 4.59 but he still owns a respectable 1.12 WHIP and 60:15 K/BB ratio across 68 2/3 innings (11 starts). He'll look to get back on track in his next turn against the Mets on the road.

Sun May 14 202322:31Aaron Nola Takes The Loss On Sunday
Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Aaron Nola took the loss on Sunday, allowing four runs on six hits while striking out four and walking one across seven innings in a 4-0 defeat at the hands of the Colorado Rockies. Nola ran into trouble right away in this one, allowing the first three batters to reach via a single, a walk, and another single. C.J. Cron then grounded into a force out, which scored a pair of runs. Nola settled in after that but then served up a solo home run to Brenton Doyle and an RBI single to Kris Bryant in the bottom of the fifth inning. He received zero run support from his offense and took the loss, falling to 3-3 on the year. Nola will take his 4.53 ERA, 1.11 WHIP, and 43:12 K/BB ratio across 55 2/3 innings (nine starts) into his next turn against the Cubs at home.

Sat May 6 202315:11Aaron Nola, Phillies Likely To Talk Contract After Season
According to Jon Heyman of the New York Post, the Phillies and starting pitcher Aaron Nola are expected to resume contract talks after the season. Both sides had negotiated a new deal last offseason. However, nothing came of it, despite Philadelphia reportedly offering the veteran over $100 million. He has been a fixture in Philly for nearly a decade, compiling an 80-64 record (210 starts) and amassing a 3.64 ERA with 1,413 strikeouts. He's also remained relatively healthy, appearing in at least 32 games in four of the last five seasons. Nola reportedly wants to remain with the team, so there's a good chance he stays put.

Sat Apr 22 202300:54Aaron Nola Goes Seven Innings Friday
Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Aaron Nola pitched in seven innings, giving up three runs on four hits and three walks while striking out three batters Friday. Nola's efforts helped his team secure a 4-3 win over the Colorado Rockies. He struggled early in the game, giving up three runs in the first inning. However, the Phillies' top pitcher showed impressive resilience and held the Rockies scoreless for the rest of the game. A solid outing will be a confidence booster for Nola after a rough start to the season.

Fri Mar 31 202300:43Aaron Nola Implodes In Opening Day Start
Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Aaron Nola got lit up in his Opening Day start against the Texas Rangers, allowing five runs over just 3 2/3 innings. Nola was actually cruising for the first three innings, allowing just one baserunner. But things came unraveled in the fourth, when he allowed four hits and a walk, including a three-run homer to Robbie Grossman, before being pulled. The fantasy ace has been known to have these occasional blow-ups, but they are usually few and far between. Expect Nola to bounce back from this performance and put up his usual ace-like numbers this season.

Fri Mar 24 202313:10Phillies Name Aaron Nola The Opening Day Starter
The Philadelphia Phillies named right-hander Aaron Nola as their Opening Day starter for next Thursday against the Texas Rangers. It will be Nola's sixth straight Opening Day nod. It speaks to how good the 29-year-old has been as the team's ace. He'll be facing off against ex-division-rival ace Jacob deGrom as well. Nola finished fourth in the National League Cy Young voting in 2022 after going 11-13 in the regular season with a 3.25 ERA (2.58 FIP), 0.96 WHIP and 29.1 percent strikeout rate in 32 starts covering 205 innings. He's a fantasy ace for those drafting this weekend, and RotoBaller has him ranked No. 7 among starting pitchers.

Fri Feb 17 202317:30Aaron Nola, Phillies In Extension Talks
The Philadelphia Phillies and starting pitcher Aaron Nola have begun discussions on a long-term contract extension, according to multiple major-league sources. He's currently scheduled to become a free agent after the 2023 season. There appears to be momentum to reach an agreement sometime this spring, and Nola has expressed his interest in remaining in Philadelphia. Nola doesn't want to drag extensions into the regular season, so if the Phils don't want him hitting the open market this winter, they'll need to get something done soon. The 29-year-old right-hander is making $16 million in 2023, but his robust track record will allow him to get paid on his next deal. He has made more starts and pitched more innings than anyone in baseball since the start of 2018, and he finished fourth in the NL Cy Young voting last season. Nola is a top-five fantasy ace, regardless of whether he signs an extension this spring.

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Aaron Nola will get a chance to redeem himself with a 2-1 series lead in Wednesday's World Series Game 4 against Cristian Javier and the Houston Astros. Nola has not had a great postseason to the tune of a 4.57 ERA through four starts, including a five-run, 4 1/3-inning dud in last Friday's Game 1. He is still one of the Phillies' two aces and pitched like it in the regular season, going 11-13 with a 3.25 ERA, 0.96 WHIP, and 29.1% strikeout rate over 32 starts. He will look to give his team a 3-1 series lead at home.
