CBS New York: Sweeny’s Yankees Notes: Harper To The Bronx After 2018 A Mortal Lock

Disclaimer: If you think this is the official website of the New York Yankees, you're an idiot. Go away.

This is a match made in money. Always remember what 16-year-old Harper said about his career ambitions as a Sports Illustrated cover boy in 2009:

“Be in the Hall of Fame, definitely. Play in Yankee Stadium. Play in the pinstripes. Be considered the greatest baseball player who ever lived. I can’t wait,” he told the magazine.

I also vividly remember Harper ogling Yankees batting practice before a spring training game a few years ago.
