The former top prospect missed the 2023 season due to Tommy John surgery and posted a 4.93 ERA in 26 outings (24 starts) between the Red Sox and Phillies in 2025.

Fantasy Impact
After today’s win, Buehler’s season stats now sit at a 4.93 ERA and 1.52 WHIP with a record of 10-7 across 24 starts. However, since joining Philadelphia three games ago, Buehler has a 0.66 ERA and 1.17 WHIP while getting three wins in 13.2 innings pitched. He still isn't getting many strikeouts (8:6 K:BB), hinting that he might not be in the rotation heading into the playoffs. It's been a rough regular season for the former ace, but he has a chance to make the playoffs memorable.
