Phillies' Cristopher Sanchez: Nabs 17th victory
Rotowire
Sanchez (17-5) earned the win against the Astros on Wednesday, allowing six runs on 10 hits and no walks in six innings. He struck out 10.
It was a rare dud by the All-Star southpaw, who gave up his most runs since July 6 in Kansas City. It was also a surprise to see Sanchez serve up a pair of home runs after he gave up just two in his prior nine outings, but he's now worked at least five frames in all but one of his 30 starts on the year. He'll take an excellent 2.79 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 210:42 K:BB over 187.1 innings into his next scheduled appearance in Washington.
Turner went 2-for-4 with a double and a two-run home run in Tuesday's 6-5 loss to the Astros.
The shortstop took Hayden Wesneski deep in the sixth inning as the Phillies tried to rally from an early 5-0 deficit, but they couldn't quite find an equalizer. Turner snapped a 24-game power drought with the blast, his 18th of the season, and over that stretch he slashed a meager .184/.266/.245 with one steal, five RBI and 10 runs. Despite his struggles in 2026, Turner still sits two home runs and two stolen bases away from his fourth career 20-20 campaign.

Phillies' Andrew Painter: Hit hard in Tuesday's loss
Rotowire
Painter (3-9) took the loss Tuesday as the Phillies fell 6-5 to the Astros, coughing up five runs on 10 hits and two walks over five innings. He struck out six.
Four of the hits off the 23-year-old righty went for extra bases, including homers by Christian Walker in the second inning and Cam Smith in the fourth. The outing snapped Painter's quality start streak at three, and while he's still prone to rough nights, his overall results have been improving. Since the beginning of August, he's kept the ball in the yard in five of seven trips to the mound, delivering a 3.89 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 38:12 K:BB over 39.1 innings. Painter will look to shake this one off in his next start, which is scheduled to come on the road this weekend in Atlanta.
Miller (back) was transferred to Double-A Reading on Tuesday to continue his rehab assignment, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.
The 22-year-old was sent to Single-A Clearwater on Saturday to begin the rehab assignment and will move up to the Double-A level after going 1-for-2 with a walk and a double in one game. Miller has been on the shelf all season due to a back injury, but he could see action with Triple-A Memphis before the end of the regular season in a couple weeks.
Phillies' Jesus Luzardo: Fires first career shutout
Rotowire
Luzardo (14-5) notched the win against Atlanta on Monday, allowing two hits and one walk in nine scoreless innings. He struck out 12.
Luzardo outdueled Grant Holmes in Monday's 1-0 victory, pitching both his first career complete game and shutout. The southpaw has been rolling on the hill since the onset of August, throwing at least 5.2 innings while yielding two runs or fewer in each of his last seven starts. He's set to finish a two-start week over the weekend in Atlanta while carrying a 2.87 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 221:52 K:BB over 178.2 innings for the season.
Schwarber went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and an additional run scored in Sunday's 5-4 loss to Atlanta.
Schwarber gave the Phillies a 4-1 lead with a solo blast in the seventh inning. The slugger entered Saturday's contest in an 0-for-14 skid but has now homered in back-to-back games and leads the majors with 42 long balls. In addition to his power, he's slashing .241/.357/.524 with 86 RBI, 85 runs scored and three steals across 614 plate appearances this season.

Phillies' Aaron Nola: Keeps rolling in no-decision
Rotowire
Nola did not factor into the decision in Sunday's 5-4 loss to Atlanta, allowing one run on four hits and one walk with five strikeouts over seven innings.
Nola allowed a run in the sixth inning and departed in line for the win, throwing 65 of 93 pitches for strikes with 11 whiffs. The veteran hurler has now yielded two earned runs or fewer in six straight outings, delivering quality starts in three of those contests. He'll take a 4.76 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 162:52 K:BB across 155 innings this season into a road rematch with Atlanta next weekend.
Realmuto is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta, Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Realmuto will get a breather after starting the previous four games and going 1-for-13 with two walks and four strikeouts. Garrett Stubbs will step in behind the plate to catch for right-hander Aaron Nola while batting ninth.
Schwarber went 2-for-3 with two walks, a home run, two runs scored and two RBI in Saturday's 4-2 win over Atlanta.
The veteran slugger gave the Phillies a 4-1 lead with a solo shot in the fourth inning that left his bat at 108.7 mph and caromed off the facing of the upper deck down the right-field line. Schwarber's 41 homers leads the majors, with the Cubs' Pete Crow-Armstrong (39) and the Rays' Junior Caminero (38) on his heels, but he also paces MLB with 199 strikeouts in 136 games as he threatens to surpass the career-high 215 Ks he piled up in 2023.
