Bryce the phenom, maybe not.....

I agree that there needs to be more time to see him play before jumping to conclusions that he's a fail.

Everyone needs to remember how much this kid has been through this year. It's his first year as a pro....he's probably never played this much baseball in his life, so you know he has to be tired right now.

If you haven't been mired in an 0 for 13 slump, odds are you haven't played pro ball. Bryce will figure things out; he's got all the talent in the world.

FYI guys it was said in jest. I know he will come around eventually. If anything its good that he is finally starting to struggle a little. He needs to be humbled a bit and learn to get himself out of a slump and emotionally get through it.

Give the kid some time.He is going to be really good I think.

In case anyone missed it, below are Harper's final 2011 Arizona Fall League stats. Looks like he did alright! He hit .333 (31 for 93) with 14 extra base hits (6 homers), 26 RBI, 17 runs scored, .400 OBP and .634 slugging pct. (1.034 OPS.)

In his last 10 games, he hit .427 with a .487 OBP and .743 slugging pct. (1.230 OPS). Nats fans are pleased!

Always looking for World Football League jerseys, NFL/AFL durene jerseys, Atlanta Falcons jerseys, and any Willie McGee and Darren Lewis game used items.

Douche attitude to go along with that steroid jaw. Kid is just another overrated, over hyped prospect.
