The Philadelphia Phillies are predicted to potentially trade right-hander Aaron Nola if salary cap regulations come into effect. Nola, who has struggled recently with a 6.01 ERA last season and a 5.86 ERA this year, has four years and $98 million remaining on his contract. The team, hindered by multiple long-term deals, may see Nola as a candidate for trade to manage their salary structure. Despite his history with the team, the current situation might make it necessary to part ways with the veteran pitcher to remain competitive under new financial guidelines.

- •His recent performance includes a decline in strikeouts.
- •Nola is viewed as a primary trade option due to contract size.
