The Philadelphia Phillies have some major decisions to make this offseason, and perhaps the most important of all will be deciding what to do with Kyle Schwarber.

Schwarber is headed toward free agency after a monster campaign in which he smashed 56 home runs while leading the majors with 132 RBI, so you can bet that he will have plenty of suitors, regardless of the fact that he doesn't play the field.

Will the Phillies be able to retain him? Or will they get blown out of the water by another club coming along and offering Schwarber a gargantuan deal?

Well, if Spotrac's contract projection is any indication, Philadelphia should have no problem re-signing Schwarber, as it is predicting the 32-year-old to secure a four-year, $99.6 million pact on the open market.

That's good for an average annual value of just under $25 million per year, which seems entirely outlandish for a guy who just posted a .928 OPS and has hit over 45 homers in three of the last four seasons.

If that's all Schwarber is going to get in free agency, then yes; the Phillies will absolutely keep him. It seems very hard to imagine Philadelphia allowing the slugger to walk on those terms.

Of course, it's entirely possible that the Phillies will not want to go beyond three years for Schwarber, but the man just played all 162 games and doesn't appear to be slowing down. He has appeared in at least 150 contests for four straight campaigns, and it's not like he is a huge injury risk as a designated hitter.

All of that being said, I find it very hard to believe that Schwarber won't even hit the $100 million mark on a four-year deal. Bleacher Report is projecting the lefty masher to land a four-year, $120 million contract, which seems considerably more reasonable. And to be perfectly honest, even that might be on the low end.

There are plenty of teams in need of another big bat in the middle of their order, so Philadelphia will likely face some stiff competition for Schwarber's services.

In the end, I actually do think the Phillies will ultimately re-sign the Middletown, Oh. native, but it won't be easy, especially considering that Philadelphia also has to allocate resources to upgrade the roster elsewhere after yet another discouraging playoff exit.
