Bryce Harper is way more hype than reality. Pass.


I don’t like him either, but he’s real good

Nothing to do with liking him or not, I just don’t think he’s even close to being the best player in baseball. He’s hype and hasn’t quite lived up to that. If he matched the hype, it’s because he has Trouts numbers, which he’s not even close.

He is really good, but he certainly hasn't lived up to the hype. He was on the cover of SI at 16 being touted as a prodigy and baseball's "Chosen One."

Pick your starting 3 OF, does Harper even make the cut at this point?

Acuna
Bellinger
Betts
Judge
Harper
Trout
Yelich
