Schwarber went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
He's found his power stroke lately, going yard three times in the last four games to give Schwarber 15 homers on the year. He isn't doing much other than hitting home runs, however -- he's hitting only .203 (12-for-59) in June with five homers and 12 RBI in 19 games.

Schwarber went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
Schwarber went deep for the second straight game, giving him 14 home runs for the year as he aims for his second straight season with 30 or more long balls. The 25-year-old is now batting .243 with an .864 OPS, numbers that are both up from 2017 as Schwarber has cut his strikeout rate and made more consistent contact at the plate this season.

Schwarber went 1-for-5 with a three-run homer in Friday's win over the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
Schwarber took Michael Wacha deep in the fifth inning for his 12th home run of the year. The 25-year-old now has 31 RBI and 30 runs along with a .242 batting average on the year. He's holding a solid .364 on-base percentage but is striking out over 25 percent of the time. Schwarber's production seems to come in bunches, as is the case in June where his two home runs and seven RBI have come in two games.

Schwarber went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's win over the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
The 25-year-old slugger now has 10 home runs this season in 148 at-bats, and last season's total of 30 definitely looks within reach. Schwarber has also been able to cut down on his strikeout rate this year, which has helped him to a .257 average so far after posting a .211 mark in 2017.
