In his 2025 contract year, Schwarber set career highs in home runs, RBI, slugging percentage and OPS. However, last year was far from an outlier; Schwarber drove in 100 or more runs in the past three seasons. 

Phillies Re-Sign Kyle Schwarber

His crowning moment came on Aug. 28, as he slammed four home runs and drove in nine in a 19-4 win over the division rival Atlanta Braves.

With fellow veterans Bryce Harper and Nick Castellanos having down seasons by their respective standards, Schwarber — despite a .240 batting average — was the most consistent hitter on a Phillies team that won 96 games and easily won the NL East. 

For reference, as a team, they hit 212 home runs. Schwarber alone supplied more than a quarter of them. Additionally, by every account, he is a crucial piece of Philadelphia’s clubhouse culture and has played more than 150 games in each of the past four seasons, including all 162 in ‘25.

Debuting in 2015, Schwarber is a known commodity. His goal is to slug and will not be sold short. In 11 seasons, he has 340 career home runs, having hit 30 or more seven times. Schwarber has crossed the 40 longball threshold on three occasions. 

Strikeouts and low batting average are par for the course, but after hitting .197 in 2023, Schwarber seemingly made an adjustment as he hit .244 over the ensuing two years.
