## Resource

Kyle Schwarber is back at first base for the Phillies — his first start there since 2021 — as the team shifts him from DH to manage Bryce Harper’s defensive workload. With 24 homers already this season and 56 last year, Schwarber’s bat is a force, even if his glove work isn’t flashy. The move makes sense: Philly’s outfielders are better defensively, so Schwarber’s power at first is a smart fit. Harper bats third as DH today, keeping the star fresh while Schwarber steps into a familiar role — proving his versatility and value beyond the plate.
