MLB All-Star Game Shocker: Why Top Stars George Springer, Juan Soto, and Randy Arozarena Were Shockingly Overlooked

SP Ranger Suárez, Philadelphia Phillies
There’s a case to be made for all three of Philadelphia’s stellar southpaws — Suárez, Cristopher Sanchez and Jesus Luzardo — but Suárez has grabbed my attention the most since his return to the rotation in May after a back injury derailed the start of his season. He got rocked in his first outing (7 ER in 3 ⅔ IP), but in 11 starts since then, he has been practically untouchable, posting a 1.23 ERA in 73 ⅓ innings. His overall workload is less than some other candidates, but he has unquestionably been one of the league’s best pitchers when on the mound. Like Valdez, he could cash in big-time in free agency.
