Bryce Harper is having the kind of season the Philadelphia Phillies dreamed about when they signed him to that blockbuster deal ahead of the 2019 season.

Over 111 games so far, he’s slashing .306/.420/.594 with a 1.014 OPS that leads all of MLB. It’s his personal best since his MVP season in 2015.
