Kepler went 3-for-5 with a solo homer and an additional RBI in Saturday's 10-4 win over the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Kepler got the Phillies on the board in the fourth inning on a single to left field that brought Kyle Schwarber home. Kepler scored later in that frame, and he extended the Phillies lead to eight runs in the seventh frame on a solo homer to right field off Ethan Roberts. Saturday marked Kepler's eighth multi-hit game of the year and he is in the midst of a five-game hitting streak. Over that span he has gone 8-for-17 with three walks, three runs scored and a solo home run.

Kepler went 3-for-4 with a solo homer and a double in Monday's win over Colorado.
EDGE Analysis
Kepler doubled in the second inning and gave the Phillies some extra cushion with his solo shot in the eighth. It was his first multi-hit effort of the young 2025 campaign after going 1-for-7 with three walks in the opening series against Washington. Kepler should continue seeing regular playing time against righties as long as the bat stays steady.

Kepler (back) will start in left field and bat third in Tuesday's Grapefruit League contest versus the Pirates, Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kepler suffered a back injury Sunday, when he collided with the outfield wall while tracking a flyball. Though an immediate timeline for Kepler's return wasn't known after he suffered the injury, he apparently needed just one day of rest to move past the back issue. Kepler is in line to serve as the Phillies' primary left fielder in 2025.

Kepler (back) does not have a timetable for his return to action, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kepler had to be removed from Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Orioles with a bruised lower back after he collided with the outfield wall while making a catch. He did not play Monday and it sounds like he could miss a few additional days of action. If healthy, Kepler is slated to open the season as the Phillies' primary left fielder.
