In today’s Phillies news, Bryce Harper really wants to be an Olympian
Phillies outfielder Bryce Harper is giving us some much-needed Phillies news when he got fired up on a podcast talking about how much he wants to be an Olympian.
In February an agreement was made to allow MLB players who are on 40-man rosters but not in the Major Leagues to play in the 2020, now 20201, Summer Olympics in Tokyo. This rule would allow some of baseballs best young prospects to play, but would bar players like Harper, Mike Trout, and other stars to play on the world stage.
