Can Suárez outdo his best season as a full-time SP?... 2024 was Ranger Suárez's (LHP, PHI) third and best season since becoming a full-time starter, as he posted his best ERA and WHIP since 2021, when he spent half the season as a reliever.

| Year | IP | ERA | xERA | BB% | K% | K-BB% | GB/LD/FB | H% | S% | HR/F | xBB% | SwK% |

| 2022 | 155 | 3.65 | 3.91 | 9% | 19% | 11% | 55/17/27 | 30% | 75% | 12% | 8% | 9.3% |
| 2023 | 125 | 4.18 | 4.20 | 9% | 22% | 13% | 48/20/30 | 33% | 73% | 12% | 8% | 9.7% |
| 2024 | 151 | 3.46 | 3.37 | 7% | 23% | 17% | 51/22/25 | 31% | 74% | 13% | 7% | 10.0% |
