A former teammate of Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Zack Wheeler reportedly delivered a blunt assessment of the right-hander's future, stating "His career's over," according to a Yahoo Sports report published Friday.
The comment, attributed to an unnamed former teammate, was highlighted in a story by contributor Peter Chawaga. The report did not specify when or in what context the remark was made.
Wheeler, 36, was photographed before a game against the Baltimore Orioles at Oriole Park at Camden Yards on August 2, 2026. The Phillies have not publicly responded to the claim.
