Kyle Schwarber (back) returning for Phillies Tuesday afternoon

Philadelphia Phillies designated hitter Kyle Schwarber (back) will start at designated hitter and bat leadoff on Tuesday afternoon versus right-hander Jose Butto and the New York Mets.

What It Means

Schwarber is back in the lineup after missing three turns due to back soreness. Nick Castellanos served as the Phillies' DH in Monday's series opener, but he will shift back to the outfield and hit second on Tuesday. Alec Bohm will also return to the cleanup spot for the second game of the series. Whit Merrifield will move to the bench after leading off the last three games in place of Schwarber.

numberFire's models project Schwarber for 12.6 FanDuel points on Tuesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Phillies' implied total (4.27) is No. 15 in the majors today.
