One year ago today, the Philadelphia Phillies inked Bryce Harper to a 13-year/$330 million free-agent contract, following what sometimes felt like an endless courting.

Harper had a very strong first season in red pinstripes.

Following a big second-half, Harper finished the season with a slash line of .260/.372/.510, with 35 home runs, a career-high 114 RBIs, 99 walks and a 4.6 fWAR.

Of course, chicks don’t dig walks. They don’t even dig the wOBA, as much as that phrase caught on in the Phillies clubhouse in 2018.
