Kyle Schwarber

Losing one, even for a few weeks, would sting. Losing both would put an immense strain on the Phillies leading into the All-Star break.

There was always something about Schwarber that made him one of the most revered teammates in baseball. "He just makes you feel incredible."

Schwarber has posted almost identical numbers through 98 PAs as he did last season. But he's arrived at that point differently.

The pressure would be mounting for the Phillies if the pitchers hadn't saved the hitters in the first 17 games.

It will never make aesthetic sense — a burly DH batting first — but Schwarber looks different in 2024. He is slimmer. He is ... less slow.

There's cardio, communication, hand-eye coordination and yes, s---talking, in the game designed by coach Paco Figueroa that "wakes you up."

The ejection occurred in the third inning after Harper appeared to hold up on a pitch down and inside on a full count.

It’s time to talk about a whole bunch of game-changing, late-inning home runs … that somehow didn’t change anything at all.

Why Guardians utilityman David Fry's 64-pitch outing will go down in position player pitching lore, and so much more.

Leadoff hitters are sleek. They aren't supposed to have their own beer. But Schwarber and the Phils are leaning into his season of extremes.

The Phillies have 35 come-from-behind wins this season and a 3 1/2-game lead over the next team in the wild-card race.

There are so many oddities to Schwarber's season, but there are reasons to buy into manager Rob Thomson's optimism.

The Phillies secured their 22nd one-run win Friday, equaling their total from last season. It's not the most comfortable way to live.
