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.

Schwarber went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Saturday's 10-0 win over the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Schwarber has met expectations from a power standpoint thus far in July, as his long ball Saturday was his sixth in 14 games this month. However, Schwarber has produced only four other hits in his 56 at-bats in July and has drawn only three walks. The Phillies continue to deploy Schwarber as their leadoff man, but interim manager Rob Thomson could consider adjusting the lineup coming out of the All-Star break in light of Schwarber's struggles to consistently get on base over the past few weeks.

Schwarber went 3-for-4 with two solo home runs in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
Schwarber supplied all the offense for the Phillies in this one, launching a solo home run off Josiah Gray in the fourth frame and another off him in the sixth. He has now gone deep 27 times this season and four times in the last two days. Schwarber has been mashing the ball lately, producing a .288 average with nine homers, 18 RBI, 11 runs and a stolen base over his last 13 contests. He has been a crucial part of keeping the Phillies' offense afloat while Bryce Harper (thumb) has been on the 10-day injured list since June 26.

Schwarber went 2-for-3 with a walk, two solo home runs and a third run scored in Tuesday's 11-0 rout of the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
Both homers came off Paolo Espino and neither was a cheapie, as Schwarber crushed a ball to straightaway center field in the first inning to lead off the game before depositing another in the second deck down the right-field line in the third. The 29-year-old slugger leads the NL with 25 home runs, and 14 of them have come since the beginning of June -- a 31-game stretch in which he's slashing .269/.374/.672 with 30 RBI.

Schwarber went 1-for-4 with a three-run homer Thursday against Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
Schwarber took Jesus Cruz yard in the third inning to record his 23rd homer of the season. He hit extremely well across 27 games in June, slugging 12 home runs while also tallying 27 RBI and 27 runs scored. Overall, Schwarber has maintained a 133 wRC+ and .364 wOBA across 328 plate appearances.

Schwarber went 1-for-3 with two walks, a solo home run and a second run scored in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
His seventh-inning blast off Dylan Lee tied the game at 3-3, but it was the last gasp from the Phillies' offense. Schwarber has gone yard six times in the last 12 games to give him 22 homers on the year, and the hot streak has raised his slash line to .220/.344/.511.

Schwarber went 2-for-5 with a home run, a double and four RBI in Sunday's 8-5 win over the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
Schwarber accounted for half of the Phillies' run production with an RBI double in the second inning and a go-ahead, three-run blast in the seventh. The long ball was his 10th in June and his 21st of the season, while his four RBI were a season high. The outfielder is slashing .219/.340/.502 with 46 RBI, 51 runs scored, four steals and 12 doubles through 72 contests. With Bryce Harper (thumb) out for the foreseeable future, Schwarber and Nick Castellanos are likely to serve as the designated hitter more often, though both are likely to maintain near-everyday roles in the lineup.

Schwarber went 1-for-4 with an RBI and a stolen base in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
Schwarber took a break from flexing his power, instead showing off a little speed by stealing second after his RBI single in the fifth inning. He's hit safely in eight of his last 10 games, going 10-for-38 (.263) with four homers, eight RBI and nine runs scored in that span. For the season, the outfielder is slashing .215/.339/.488 with 20 homers, 42 RBI, 50 runs scored and four steals in 71 contests.
