Michael Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Can he really decline if he's just 21? He's adjusting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Just saying I feel it's too soon for them to say he's declining. Go backwards, yes, but declining would indicate a long period of success followed by a downfall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pollythewog Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Yeah but what will he do after he adjusts and then the league adjusts again? Only one player has that skill... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. You do not get to do this after months of you making the most illogical and mindblowingly stupid arguments for Casey fucking McGehee and your trademark "people can improve" schtick. No. Just fuck you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Just fuck you. Regression and improvement are both realities of every sport. There's plenty of time for Harper to rebound, and a likely culprit is all the injuries he's had makes it hard to play consistently well. I just hate Bryce Harper, I think he's a douche.

Piazza31 Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Harpers young, was probably rushed to the majors and is doing it on a competitive team. He'll pull around. Even if it means a "rehab" stint to do it. He's already proven to be an average MLB player when he had expectations that would normally break any 17 year old. FFS- he was on the Sports Illustrated cover at 16! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
