Kyle Schwarber homers, Phillies fall to Cubs

Kyle Schwarber went 1-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in the Phillies' 10-4 loss to the Cubs.

Fantasy Impact

His lone hit of the game added to his impressive home run tally, bringing his season total to 38. Despite the loss, Schwarber's power continues to be a major asset for fantasy managers, especially in leagues that value slugging and RBI. However, his high strikeout rate remains a concern and can be a drag on his batting average, which sits at .250. Owners should continue to ride the power wave with Schwarber, but must be cognizant of the potential batting average liability.
