Could it be inevitable? Could we actually see Washington Nationals emerging outfielder Bryce Harper don pinstripes one day? New York Yankees’ fans sure hope so.
As the Yankees fell in their last game against the Nationals, you could hear chants of, “2019! 2019!” and “Future Yankee! Future Yankee!” emerge from the bleachers in Yankee Stadium, all in regards of Harper. Are Yankees’ fans getting ahead of themselves? More than likely, but they also might just be on to something.
Harper, 22, is rapidly becoming one of the higher tier baseball players in today’s game.
