Anyone feel like Bryce is underrated in the hobby?

His 2012 is incredibly short printed compared to 2024

Prices are starting to inch up though

On side note. His power is gone. But he is on fire last 30 games.

Dealing with sore right elbow. Hand twinges after swings every once in a while. Gets drilled on the left elbow couple games ago. And yet he doesn’t sit a game. Doesn’t get a day off. Wish Topper would put on his big boy pants and tell him he’s sitting a game.

Or else he can enjoy watching a skeleton of Bryce Harper trying to carry the team through the playoffs

He nearly hit a walk off HR on Monday night. Didn't run it out and only got a single.

Tonight he had one ruled as fan interference.

He's getting close

You think his power is gone? I don’t think so. He’s dealing with injuries

I loved seeing Harper confront the pitcher from second base after the HBP last night. He’s a fiery team leader. A guy you want in your trench when you go to war. You would never see Trout do that. Can being to emotional hurt you sometimes? Definitely. But take that over someone who looking disinterested. His team knows he has their back.

Harper represents Philly so well. He’s awesome and so are his cards

Thank you!

Excited when I pulled it from a blaster box I bought and just as thrilled
when I sent it for grading and scored a 10. I don't buy a lot of new boxes
or cards these days but have gotten lucky with Harper cards.

Always better when you pull a card yourself and it grades high. Congrats!

He has a bunch of cool stuff from 2008-09 Upper Deck USA as well. This is his only on-card auto iirc

Power is dead

But 40 doubles is pretty cool

Why do you say power is dead? He has 26 home runs. By comparison Guerrero Jr. has 28 and people say he’s having a great year.

But I do agree 40 doubles is awesome. At least he’s getting on base

900 OPS ain't bad, top 12 in the MLB. Bryce should get close to 30 HRs this year, could do it if he gets hot. Not a bad year, but considering the blazing start it could've been better. That said, these are the kind of years we aren't accustomed to from Bryce. It's usually either MVP caliber or mildly disappointing, and this year aint either of those imo.

So a middle of MVP and mildly disappointing. If this is how he plays in the second half of his career I’m okay with it. Him racking up counting stats and hopefully winning a World Series is good enough for me
