MLB curtails infield shift, hopes for more singles, speed

One of MLB’s most visible rule changes for 2023 is a sizable curtailing of infield shifts

FEBRUARY 22, 2023 • Associated Press

Set to bat second Schwarber is expected to hit second for the Phillies this season, with offseason acquisition Trea Turner leading off, Scott Lauber of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Impact Schwarber led off 123 times last season. He doesn't have the traditional speed for a leadoff man, and the role may have turned a few too many of his career-high 46 homers into solo shots, but his typically excellent walk rates make him a decent fit nonetheless. Turner owns a .355 career on-base percentage and also has far more speed, however, making him the obvious choice for manager Rob Thomson. Expect slightly fewer plate appearances for Schwarber this season as a result, but his overall value shouldn't change much with the move, as he'll get back in the RBI category whatever he loses in runs.
