Kyle Schwarber

Can we just get a do-over for April? Sure, Yermin Mercedes wouldn't be too thrilled about it, but most every other hitter would probably get on board. The further we distance ourselves from that wretched first month, the more it looks like an aberration. That wasn't the thinking at the...

Kyle Schwarber is single handily keeping the Nationals afloat. During this past off-season, the Nationals were in serious need of offensive upgrades. So when it was announced Washington had signed slugger Kyle Schwarber it was disappointing, to say the least. At the time, D.J. Lemahieu, J.T. Realmuto, and Marcell Ozuna were all still unsigned, while third baseman Kris Bryant and Nolan Arenado were available via the trade market. Instead, Washington opted to follow the cheaper route, settling on a one-year deal with a mutual option for 2022.

“To be honest with you, I don’t know what’s going on,” Kyle Schwarber told reporters after his three-home run game on Sunday, which capped off a nine-home run homestand, over which he went 13 for 38 (.342/.395/1.053). “It was amazing,” manager Davey Martinez said of Schwarber’s recent run, which took...

The SNY announce team covering the game was apoplectic when Washington Nationals’ skipper Davey Martinez lifted Kyle Schwarber after he went 3 for 4 with three homers over seven innings in Sunday’s series finale with the New York Mets in the nation’s capital. The list of players with four home...

With the Tampa Bay Rays losing six straight, they finally decided it was time to promote arguably the game's top prospect in Wander Franco. He's the latest in a long line of super prospects in the mold of a Juan Soto. Of course, it's never fair to compare a player who's never taken a Major League at-bat to a superstar, but I'll do it anyway. Why? Because it's fun! You can read more about Franco below.

So what were Davey Martinez’s first thoughts on the Washington Nationals’ 8-3 homestand in the immediate aftermath of the club’s 5-2 win over the New York Mets on Sunday?. “It’s funny because you sit there — I’m sitting there, and I said, ‘Man, I wish we didn’t have a day...

It’s not nice to kick a team while it’s (sorta) down, but boy, oh boy could the Chicago Cubs use the offensive services of Kyle Schwarber right now. With many of their stars mired in slumps, their former teammate and friend has been radioactive since being moved to the leadoff spot in Washington.

As far as home run hitters go, essentially no one has been hotter than Washington Nationals outfielder Kyle Schwarber. After blasting three homers on Sunday -- yes, you read that right -- Schwarber now has nine in his last ten games. With 18 on the season, he is just five back of the league lead.

In the last two days, former Cubs outfielder Kyle Schwarber has hit five homers. My only reaction, sincerely, is good for him. The five homers have him up to a whopping 18 on the season, half of which have come in his last 10 games. Dude is on a homer BINGE:

On June 8th against the Tampa Bay Rays, Kyle Schwarber found himself in a spot that he hadn’t been in for a while when Washington Nationals manager Dave Martinez put the slugging left fielder in the leadoff spot of his batting order. Schwarber didn’t get off to a great start,...

WASHINGTON -- Kyle Schwarber homered three times and tied a major league record with five in a two-game span, leading the Washington Nationals over the New York Mets 5-2 Sunday to take three of four in the series. Schwarber set a Nationals/Montreal Expos record by homering nine times in a...

So let’s hope Kyle Schwarber is done hitting homers against the Mets for the year. While not likely the case, Schwarber hit five home runs across the final two games of the four-game series against New York. He single-handedly beat the Mets over those two games, and they split the other two. Nevertheless, it’s a disappointing start to a 16-game stretch against NL East opponents, especially after winning seven of 11 games against the likes of the Cubs and Padres.

Turns out Kyle Schwarber’s power swing is ideal for more than just Yankee Stadium. Schwarber’s career resurgence in his first season with the Nationals reached new heights Sunday as he crushed three home runs (combined distance 1,174 feet) during a 5-2 win against the Mets. He tied a MLB record with five home runs over a two-game span covering just eight at-bats.

How did the Nationals react to the reaction to Gerardo Parra returning to Nationals Park?. “We started laughing,” manager Davey Martinez said. “It was funny, because I watched J-Hay [Josh Harrison] and Josh Bell, [Jordy] Mercer, all those guys that weren’t here and didn’t experience it all the time, and you should have saw their faces. I mean, they were laughing they were excited about it. I told them it’s pretty cool to see them all do the Baby Shark. I know J-Hay mentioned, he said ‘I’m sure my daughters are doing it right now wherever they’re at right now if they’re watching the game.’ So hey, like I said, the fans were into it, it was a lot of fun. What can I say about Parra, comes in and gets a huge pinch hit for us and gets us going that inning.”

Schwarber named NL Player of the Week originally appeared on NBC Sports Washington. Kyle Schwarber is carrying the Nationals’ offense as of late with his recent hot streak, and the team’s new slugger was recognized as the National League’s Player of the Week Monday. Schwarber posted a .385/.414/1.077 slash line...
