The Philadelphia Phillies face a challenging task if they wish to extend starting pitcher Ranger Suarez, who has switched representation to the Scott Boras Corporation. This change often signals a player's intention to explore free agency, and Boras clients rarely sign extensions.

Suarez, a vital part of the Phillies' rotation with a career ERA of 3.42, had a mixed 2024 season, showcasing his talent but also facing injury challenges. His representation change complicates potential negotiations for an extension.
