Schwarber (calf) remains on the bench for Tuesday's game in Cincinnati.
EDGE Analysis
Schwarber suffered a calf strain Thursday and hasn't appeared in a game since. Matt Vierling is playing left field Tuesday and figures to see plenty of playing time until Schwarber is back in action.

Schwarber (calf) is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
Schwarber is still dealing with a sore calf, so he will open on the bench for a fourth straight day. Matt Vierling will garner another start in left field in Schwarber's place.

Schwarber (calf) is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
Schwarber was able to pinch hit in Saturday's game, but he is still not 100 percent and will open on the bench for a third straight day. As was the case in the last two contests, Matt Vierling will get the start in left field.

Schwarber (calf) isn't starting Saturday against the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
Schwarber sustained a mild right calf strain Thursday against the Marlins, and he'll remain out of the lineup for a second consecutive game. However, he remains day-to-day and could be available to pinch hit Saturday, Alex Coffey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports. Matt Vierling is starting in left field and batting ninth once again.

Schwarber (calf) is not in the starting lineup Friday versus the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
Schwarber is a no-go after he left Thursday's contest with a mild right calf strain. The injury won't likely require a stint on the injured list, but it's possible that he misses a few games while nursing the issue. Matt Vierling will take over in left field Friday and bat ninth against New York.

Schwarber exited Thursday's game against the Marlins due to a mild right calf strain, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Schwarber was replaced by a pinch runner in the fifth inning after drawing a walk, and he's considered day-to-day after receiving his initial diagnosis. Prior his departure, he went 0-for-2 with a walk and a strikeout. If he's forced to miss any additional time, Matt Vierling would likely see increased playing time.

Schwarber was removed from Thursday's game against the Marlins with an apparent injury, Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer repots.
EDGE Analysis
Schwarber worked a walk during the fifth inning and was immediately replaced by a pinch runner, and it's possible he suffered an injury on a swing during the plate appearance. The 29-year-old should be considered day-to-day until more information is available.

Schwarber went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Schwarber has posted extra-base hits (two doubles and one home run) in three of his last four starts, bringing him up to 49 for the season. Though he's been an excellent source of counting stats this season with five steals, 70 runs and 67 RBI in addition to the power production, he's been a massive drain in the batting-average category with a .207 mark in 401 at-bats. Like he has throughout his career, Schwarber is walking at a high rate (12.6 percent), so the Phillies will likely stick with him as their table setter. He'll man left field and bat leadoff in Wednesday's contest.

Schwarber went 0-for-2 with two walks and a stolen base in a 13-1 loss Tuesday in Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
Schwarber never put the ball in play as he walked twice and struck out twice. His third-inning stolen base was his fifth of the season, setting a new career high. After walking just five times in his prior 115 plate appearances, the outfielder showed his patience Tuesday with his first multi-walk game since June 28. Since the All-Star break, he's 7-for-43 with four homers and 14 strikeouts.

Schwarber went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
The Phillies' leadoff man put his team on the board for the first time on the night in the sixth inning, when he took Spencer Strider deep for his 31st home run of the season. Schwarber maintains a three-homer lead over Atlanta's Austin Riley for the National League lead in the category, but the power production has come with a major drain in batting average (.203 over 355 at-bats on the season). The 29-year-old's .309 on-base percentage is similarly unremarkable for a leadoff hitter, but interim manager Rob Thomson thus far hasn't shown an inclination to move Schwarber down the lineup. Schwarber will start in left field and handle the table-setting role once again in Wednesday's series finale.
