A year ago my brother showed me Bryce Harper on You Tube. I thought to myself, “Damn, that’s a hell of a ball player.” He was 16 years old at the time. He is now 17 years young and he was drafted number one in the 2010 MLB draft!
#1 and 17 years old. A risk?
Yes, huge risk. But he’s legit.
Harper crushed junior college pitching at 17 years old.
His hands are the fastest I’ve ever seen and has tremendous power.
We’ll have to wait and see, but he is the best player in draft.
Harper left High School early to finish his GED and to be eligible for this years’ draft.
What do you guys think? Phenom or flop?
Phenom with out a doubt. fastest hands i have ever seen. great hitter.
ReplyDeleteThat being said he needs to spend at least a year in the minors. He needs to turn his game into a professional game. He also needs to learn how the professional game works. You cant expect him to just join the team and hit pitchers like Roy Halladay like its nothing. He is a smart hitter to go with pure athleticism. that is a deadly combo but he has to turn it into the professional game. but defiently PHENOM!!!!!!
Yea. The pros is a huge transition. It's easier for pitchers like young Stephen Strasburg. But i think it's harder for hitters. But I want to see him succeed. And yes he is young. I hope he adjust to the bigs and ages well.
