Schwarber went 3-for-5 with a solo homer and a double in Sunday's win over the Mariners.

Schwarber took Logan Gilbert deep to right on just the third pitch of the game to give the Phillies a quick lead they would never relinquish. Schwarber later chipped in a double in the third and a base knock in the ninth for his fifth three-hit game of the year. He's been seeing the ball exceptionally well as of late, slashing .371/.551/.800 with four homers, nine RBI, eight runs and a 13:13 BB:K over his last 10 games. Overall, Schwarber is hitting .251/.383/.467 with 23 homers, 64 RBI, 74 runs, four steals and an 80:127 BB:K in 465 plate appearances.

Schwarber went 2-for-4 with two home runs, a walk and three total RBI in Sunday's loss to the Guardians.
EDGE Analysis

The 31-year-old drove in all three Phillies runs Sunday, recording three RBI for the second-straight game.

Schwarber went 3-for-5 with two doubles and a three-run home run in Saturday's 8-0 rout of the Guardians.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran slugger reached 20 homers on the season when he took Nick Sandlin deep in the fourth inning, one of four Phillies long balls on the afternoon. It was Schwarber's first multi-hit performance since he returned from a groin strain in early July, and his first game with multiple extra-base hits since June 22. On the season, he's slashing .245/.370/.447 with 60 RBI and 67 runs in 93 contests.

The Phillies reinstated Schwarber (groin) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Just as manager Rob Thomson suggested over the weekend would be the case, Schwarber will return to the 26-man active roster ahead of Tuesday's series opener against the Dodgers. He'll likely slot back in atop the Philadelphia lineup as the team's designated hitter Tuesday against Dodgers right-hander Bobby Miller.

Phillies manager Rob Thomson confirmed Sunday that Schwarber (groin) will be activated from the 10-day injured list prior to Tuesday's series opener versus the Dodgers, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
After running on the field at approximately 90 percent intensity Saturday, Schwarber cleared the final hurdle in his recovery from a left groin strain by sprinting at full speed during a pregame workout Sunday. The Phillies apparently feel comfortable enough with Schwarber's health to let him return from the IL without heading out on a rehab assignment beforehand. Schwarber has made just three of his 78 starts in left field this season, and the Phillies will most likely deploy him strictly as a designated hitter during the upcoming week to lessen the possibility of a setback with the groin heading into the All-Star break. The 31-year-old's upcoming return will presumably result in fewer opportunities for David Dahl.

Phillies manager Rob Thomson said Thursday that Schwarber (groin) is going through drills at 90 percent intensity, Corey Seidman of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
EDGE Analysis
Meanwhile, Thomson pegged Bryce Harper (hamstring) and J.T. Realmuto (knee) at 70-to-75 percent as they go through drills. While it's possible all three players make it back prior to the All-Star break, Schwarber would appear to have the best shot to do so. He's coming back from a left groin strain.

Schwarber was placed on the 10-day injured list Friday with a mild left groin strain, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Schwarber was lifted from Thursday's game due to groin tightness, but further evaluation revealed he's battling a strain. While the DH will be shelved for at least 10 days, there's optimism Schwarber will be able to return when first eligible. With Bryce Harper (hamstring) also on the IL, Nick Castellanos and David Dahl could see more DH work.
