## Resource

Zack Wheeler’s latest start was a nightmare—five runs in just three innings, two homers surrendered, and his fastball cratered to a career-low 93.5 mph. This was his shortest outing since 2022 and the first time he’d given up five runs since 2025. With his usual dominance vanishing and the coaching staff visibly concerned after the second inning, Wheeler was pulled after three frames. His ERA spiked, and fans are now watching nervously to see if this is a fluke or the start of something deeper. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
