Hype is generally just that. And yes I will be surprised if he turns out to be a WRC+ 200 hitter on the reg since I can count the hitters that have done that on one hand. There is a huge difference between expecting him to continue to do that he's doing now and just being at an MVP level.
Goldschmidt and Trout deserve consideration as well, but Harper is certainly establishing himself. It's not a crazy statement.
Harper might break $400 in his next contract. He seems destined to go to the Yankees when it's all said and done. They are going to have a lot of money coming off the books he year he becomes a FA.
I get that we Braves fans can't stand Harper but we really need to acknowledge what we are seeing here.
This is the Lebron James of baseball.
