Wheeler underwent a successful right middle fingernail resection procedure Oct. 12, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.
Wheeler is expected to be ready for spring training following his surgery. The 30-year-old missed a start in early September due to the issue with his fingernail, but the procedure could help fix the lingering issue going forward. Wheeler posted a career-best 2.92 ERA along with a 1.17 WHIP over 71 innings during his first year with the Phillies in 2020.
