Schwarber (foot) is starting in left field and batting in the leadoff spot Saturday against the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
Schwarber was taken out of the Phillies' game Friday after fouling a ball off his left foot, but it won't force him to miss any time. The 30-year-old slugger hasn't been able to collect hits very efficiently this season, but he has gone 7-for-16 with three homers across his last five games.

Schwarber is dealing with a left foot contusion and will be re-evaluated Saturday, Alex Coffey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Schwarber was lifted from Friday's blowout win over the Twins after fouling a ball off his foot. All indications are that it was a precautionary removal, but Schwarber is sore and will be looked at again Saturday before the Phillies decide whether he can play.

Schwarber was removed from Friday's game versus the Twins after fouling a ball off his left foot, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
This looks to be mainly about getting Schwarber off his feet with the Phillies up nine runs at the time of his removal. Consider him day-to-day. Schwarber reached base in all four plate appearances -- singling twice and walking twice -- before exiting.

Schwarber went 2-for-4 with two home runs and five RBI in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
With the Phillies in an early 3-0 hole, Schwarber flipped the script by launching a three-run shot in the third inning and a two-run blast in the fourth, both off Trevor Williams. The 30-year-old slugger has become almost purely a Three True Outcomes hitter lately -- including an 0-for-3 showing in Tuesday's nightcap that featured two walks and a run scored, he's slashed .152/.374/.348 over his last 20 games with four of his 10 hits leaving the yard to go along with 12 runs and 15 RBI.
