Spring training starts in about two weeks, and despite plenty of interest from fans and some teams, the race for star outfielder Bryce Harper remains without a winner.
The Philadelphia Phillies and other teams have made a big push to land Harper, and on Tuesday, the Philadelphia Police Department added to the festivities. In a tongue-in-cheek tweet, the department announced Harper was indeed coming to Philadelphia for his next job — wearing a badge and police uniform.
The rumors are true*: Bryce Harper* is coming to Philadelphia [police]*. It's a multi-year deal worth $51,245 per year to start, with a city option to increase annually.
