Harper going to hit 60+ bombs this year

[ikid2groove415]

He wanted to the extra long contract so he can get off the roids at a young age. Smart move

If he was on ped - wouldn’t he have a insane free agent year ? 2 get that $400 million contract ? Think before you post cuz

[KiDBaZkiT]

I’m serious....it doesn’t take long for me to calculate all those WS titles for the Nationals while he was there

Booya and Laker have the same amount of titles

He will get at least one in Philly. Guy is still only 26 jfc.

Why are you on Harper’s cawk so much foo? You gay cuz? What’s up witcha brotha man?

You from Compton or something cuzzo?

[packerd_00]

There was no way he was going take less then the original offer by the nationals of $300 million - would be 2 embarrassing- he did not wanna go 2 Philadelphia- no other team would offer that much - Case closed

With very good reason, how often do these sorts of big money long term contracts go bad, too many to count.

[jjgold]

no he is not

why?????????

Line nowhere close to that..lol

Maybe 60 Jager bombs since signing this gift.

[LT Profits]

get lines

Harper +2500 to win HR title, get it while you can.

[d2bets]

No one is hitting 60 HR's ever again.

Ever is a long time.

[d2bets]

Harper +2500 to win HR title, get it while you can.

Is that for real? Yeah, I'd hit that.

[LT Profits]

Is that for real? Yeah, I'd hit that.

5 Dimes right NOW. it is under Futures (not under props)

[KiDBaZkiT]

Cuse he is faithful to the LDS religion and we abstain from alcohol. Bryce is a good dude despite what people say/think. So what if he has had some moments on the field. I actually liked when he charged the mound a couple times.

[jjgold]

to much pressure on him

He is an auto out, average player thats all

[ikid2groove415]

Dodgers offer 4 years $180 million - 45 million per year - but Harper wanted the larger GURANTEE money / he didn’t pick the giants because of high California tax

Plus what hitter wants to play at AT&T park? I was glad for him he did not sign there.

[unde0087]

60 my ass, he will be lucky to get 40. The Phillies love their strikeout kings.

Money was first and location was 2nd - machado sign in San Diego - expect his numbers 2 dip - Harper did not wanna go 2 Philadelphia- they offer him that $300 million for awhile - and he finally took it at the end - because the giants and dodgers can not come up with more money

Petco is actually a good hitter's park. It only seems like a pitcher's park because Padres' hitting has been terrible for long time.

[gojetsgomoxies]

LOL

guy had 137 hits in 700 ABs last year

You expect a 45% HR clip

This contract will sink Philly

Harper is in decline, even at 26

He is now paid and will have 0 motivation to get better

Congrats Philly, youve eclipsed MN Mauer contract a decade ago (10 years/ $250mm for a 1st baseman that hits .265 w 11 hrs and 70 rbi) and just bet the franchise till fukking 2030 (think about that) on a guy that hit .245 last year and wiffed 170 times.

Guy had averaged 70 less total bases per year in 17, 18 than his mvp year. Thats literally 35 doubles or 16 hrs less per year in production since 1 mvp year.

Bad deal for Philly. Plus his stats there ain't so great and the East knows his trends.

agreed 100%......... people overlook his horrendous slump last year........ did prime A-Rod, bonds, pujols, trout etc. even have a slump remotely like that one last year

[KiDBaZkiT]

He is not even in his prime yet. Guy just has his 26th birthday a few months ago. Plus my goodness one year of .249 is not guaranteed .249 life time. Last time he hit that low he was .313 the following season.

[jjgold]

He’s not even in the same conversation as Pujos , Arod or Bonds

[Big Bear]

If that is true they may have the worst leadoff and clean up hitter in the bigs

[darrell74]

I wouldn't mind betting the o.p. on the over/Under.
I'll even set It at 50, and I take the under

[DrunkHorseplayer]

He won't even hit 40.

[eaglesfan371]

Assuming payment is made beginning of season (aggressive) and 5% annual time value of money, the present value (in today's dollars) of this $330 million 13 year contract is $250.47 million for Harper.

The present value of Machado's 10 year, $300 million is $243.23 million.

Very closely the same and if Phillies are expecting a higher growth rate, the longer contract makes sense. Not sure about growth potential in either market so cannot make a sensitivity analysis on that.

Machado isn't shit.

[KiDBaZkiT]

His 184 career hr thru his his age 25 season are the 12th most in MLB history. Since entering the league in 2012 he has posted a 139 OPS+ (tied for 7th best in MLB min 800 games played) He has a .283 avg, .410 OBP and .543 SLG with 129 HR and 372 RBI over the laat 4 seasons, over that time period he ranks in the TOP 10 IN THE MAJORS in HR, OBP, and SLG (min 500 games played)

[KiDBaZkiT]

He won't even hit 40.

Have another beer drunky. He hit 34 last year in a down season. Now he will be re energized in a smaller park.

for the first one not a whole lot of guys have played 7 full seasons before turning 26

if money was 1st and location 2nd sounds to me like he doesnt care about winning huh
