Ending his brief free agency, slugger Kyle Schwarber signed a five-year contract on Tuesday to stay with the Philadelphia Phillies.
The team confirmed the length of the deal but not the finances. According to multiple media reports, the contract is worth $150 million.
Also on Tuesday, the Phillies extended manager Rob Thomson's contract through the 2027 season.
Schwarber led the National League with 56 homers and topped the majors with 132 RBIs last season. The three-time All-Star batted .240 with 111 runs and finished second in the NL Most Valuable Player voting.
Schwarber, 32, is established as one of the top power bats in the majors. He has hit 187 homers in his four seasons with the Phillies and 340 in a career that began with the Chicago Cubs in 2015.
