Bryce Harper committed his baseball life to Philadelphia when he signed a 13-year, $330 million contract with the Phillies prior to the 2019 season.
He remained a Washington National throughout his walk year in 2018, but there was real buzz surrounding a potential deadline deal.
We already know that Harper was nearly dealt to the Houston Astros at the July 31 trade deadline in 2018, but we didn’t have any idea what the blockbuster trade that fell through looked like until now.
Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle recent reported the details of the trade that would have sent Harper to Houston.
