The Phillies haven't been tied directly to any of the remaining talented starting pitchers in free agency. Aaron Civale: A 30-year-old righty who pitched for three teams last year, he's a journeyman with a 4.14 career ERA. Zack Littell: He's a little more interesting than Civale with a better career ERA at 3.88. Chris Paddack: A 4.64 career ERA over 118 games — maybe as a camp arm? The Phillies' biggest strength last season was their starting rotation, and without much upgrade in the offense, it's important they maintain that advantage.
