Daily News | Phillies’ Kyle Schwarber has always been a winner. His former teammates explain how he does it.
last week, broke down Dalbec’s swing. Schwarber, 29, encouraged him to be more aggressive with his lower body, but more importantly, he stressed being on time. Keep it simple, see the ball, and react. Don’t make it more complicated than that.
The impact was immediate. Dalbec hit .288/.369/.684 with a 1.053 OPS for the rest of the season. But what struck Hernandez most wasn’t Dalbec’s result — it was the time that Schwarber put in to help a struggling teammate, when he was rehabbing a hamstring injury and seemingly had no time at all.Zack Wheeler’s status is the biggest story in a Phillies camp headlined by Schwarber, Castellanos
But his former teammates will tell you it isn’t just his bat that makes him a consistent winner. It’s his energy, his ability to make the big moments seem small. Last year, Cubs manager David Ross was watching highlights from Game 3 of the ALDS. The Red Sox were playing the Rays, and the series was tied 1-1.
“He will hit in the cage until until they they make him go home. He cares about his craft. But there’s some freedom in being able to turn that off, that failure of getting down on yourself. He has an understanding, just from a performance standpoint, that he’s going to make mistakes and embrace them.”
“People will just assume that you’re a robot and you’re supposed to go out there and hit home runs and make pitches, so when your teammates take the time to say hello, over eight or nine months, it’s a huge thing. I was not very good at it, and I respect the hell out of guys that are good at it. They make everybody better.”Yankees first baseman Anthony Rizzo believes that it made him better. He played with Schwarber for six seasons with the Cubs.
