Kyle Schwarber Makes All-Star Break Decision Amid Uncertain Phillies Future originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Designated hitter Kyle Schwarber is in his eleventh major-league season and fourth as a member of the Philadelphia Phillies, powering the middle of the lineup with his trademark home-run approach.

The Philadelphia Phillies have the National League East lead entering play on Monday. Kyle Schwarber and Zack Wheeler were named All-Stars, but Schwarber has made it clear where he stands on the home run derby.

Rob Thomson hoped to deliver All-Star news to Cristopher Sánchez, Ranger Suárez, and Trea Turner, too. Instead, they were snubbed in the voting by major league players, managers, and coaches.
