Why has Schwarber only been playing in every other game? Seems strange to me.

For real not in the lineup for either of these double header games?

**edit nm I guess he did play in the first one. Seems like they could have put him in left for the second game, I guess catching could be pretty taxing on your body makes some sense to take the second game off.

If they are doing intensive framing practice with him it probably makes sense to not have him playing catcher every day. That's a lot of time squatting without the games.
