Schwarber Steps Infield for Phillies

Kyle Schwarber’s making waves beyond the DH spot—playing first base for the first time since 2021, not to become a Gold Glover, but to give the Phillies roster flexibility. With Bryce Harper needing rest, having Schwarber ready to play defense occasionally—maybe 10-12 times a year—adds crucial depth without overworking him. It’s a smart, strategic move to keep Philly’s power bat in the lineup while managing fatigue and maximizing roster potential through the long season.
