The Phillies have Mike Schmidt, who is in camp as a guest hitting instructor, working with Brown to adjust his swing, the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Analysis:

Schmidt wants Brown to focus on a line drive approach toward the middle of the field rather than using an uppercut swing. Brown hit just .235/.285/.349 with 10 home runs last year after an All-Star 2013 season. The Phillies will give him a chance to return to form this season as their starting right fielder.
