and they will be DH fans now too as well I am sure most were ranting about the DH rule at the start of the year!

no DH rule Harper has surgery and is out for the season. does't play

[reyes the roof]

I feel like I should be pissed about the Phillies making the WorldSeries but I like Zack Wheeler. It does seem like the layoff between now and the start of the World Series will hurt the Phillies more than the Astros

can you believe this the ONLY off day for the WS is Thursday and guess what???? Eagles will play Houston that day in the NFL

DH rule is a win. without if Harper has surgery because he can't play and we don't see him again this year. and we don't see this run in the playoffs.

Bryce Harper is a great player, but to say he is the most significant MLB player in the last decade is such hyperbole. Mike Trout, in roughly the same number of seasons, has twice the WAR of Harper.

I’m sure there are others who have had more impact…the guy is a great, but the over the top fawning is crazy.

He kept getting voted overrated actually. Trout will get that now.. it is all because of the playoffs with not winning with the nats..

now he hits a few homers in the playoffs and suddenly he is the greatest of all time again when mainstream fans and media start blowing up about it now

To think though Cashman thoughts Hicks for 7 years cheap was better then going out for Harper

The World Series has the normal two off days

Sunday after game 2 and Thursday after game 5

Big Papi said “Bryce Harper is the most significant player in baseball over the last decade.” Then Granderson or Rollins (can’t recall) called him the LeBron James of baseball.
