The Philadelphia Phillies will have to make a difficult decision at the end of the 2025 season, and it might lead to the end of Kyle Schwarber's tenure in Philadelphia.

"In a star-studded lineup that — when healthy — features Harper, Trea Turner, JT Realmuto and Nick Castellanos, Schwarber is the Phillies' best hitter, and he's one of the biggest reasons they're considered World Series contenders," Deesha Thosar wrote for Fox Sports. "There's only one problem: Schwarber is an impending free agent."

The Philadelphia Phillies feel that losing the designated hitter wouldn’t be “the end of any window or anything.”
