The Philadelphia Phillies (51-26) face the Detroit Tigers (36-41) in a three-game series with the Phillies holding the top spot in MLB. Aaron Nola (Phillies) and Casey Mize (Tigers) are set to start the opening game. Jack Flaherty of the Tigers is healthy, but won't start, as the team plans to rest their rotation, with options including Keider Montero or a bullpen-only approach for the series finale. The Tigers aim to give their rotation extra rest days amidst a challenging season.
