Do the Yankees need to sign Bryce Harper this offseason? His agent sure hopes so. Superagent Scott Boras is known for negotiating significant deals for his star clients. Harper’s contract this offseason will be his top priority for sure.
One could think the 26-year-old superstar’s presence in the Bronx is necessary. With Didi Gregorius recovering from his recent Tommy John surgery for most of 2018, the Yankees lack a left-handed power bat. Unless Greg Bird turns it around, the Yanks haze zero players with 20-home run pop batting from the left side in their projected Opening Day lineup.
