    Harper's in Philadelphia so there's that to consider.

    Not that I care Citizens ball park plays like much more of a hitters park in warm weather and its been very cold on the east coast over the last month, ridiculous to judge Harper's season this early. Teams have also been pitching around Harper, but now that Hoskins is hitting, they won't be able to do that as much.

    Jj you do realize Harper is going to win a World Series with Philly before it is all said and done right? His first year with the team and it has been FREEZING across the country. You really think Dietrich is going to lead the NL in home runs? Harper will get a ring over there eventually.

    The amount of hate Bryce gets is unbelievable. No player in the history of MLB has been so hyped coming out of HS. the amount of pressure on him is unlike anything we've ever seen.

    I love mike trout but he was picked #25. No pressure whatsoever. It's all gravy.

    Bryce picked #1 and when he was 16 or 17 he is on the cover of SI and called basically Jesus w a baseball bat.

    SI jinx has destroyed grown men for generations, what did ppl think it would do to a 16 year old?

    Kid is far from done. Bryce Harper SUPERSTAR

    He has a mechanical long swing that cannot work as you get older
