Mike Trout or Bryce Harper

Yup...love, love watching him play. On a completely different level right now.

Within the basics, Trout is destroying Harper presently in average (50 pts for overall including Trout's rookie numbers) and slugging (100 pts) having played only 40 more games. Is that really enough time to gain that type of lead or is it that Trout just has something about him? I don't get to see him play, so I don't really know overall what he is doing to make him excel not only over Harper, but most of MLB. I have seen Harper play a fair amount and you can't take away from his hustle and determination. Also, I'm taking into account that at this age range, one year makes such a difference in so many ways..... as it did for myself in sports. So I get that factor. Will we see even a closer comparison between them next year with Harper getting the benefit of a full spring training with the team?

Gee. How original.



Oh. Wait. Does this make me jealous?

The fact that you're so concerned over how this kid acts make you seem crazy/jealous. The kid's 19. He hasn't done anything incredibly controversial, and he's fun to watch. Who didn't enjoy watching him steal home after being beaned?

I know he's got more potential than any Philly player has and will most likely be public enemy number #1 in Philly for years to come, but give him a bit of a break....

Also, I know he's been traded, but how original: http://www.fansedge.com/Philadelphia...476307_PD.html

No, petty was the first word that came to mind.

Aren't there a bunch of players with those "Blah-blah-blah Knows" shirts?

I guess Starlin Castro must be a copycat or full of himself, or Andrew McCutchen and so on... Doc Halladay has one too.

This **** is starting to get old.

Okay guys. Drop this Philly/Harper/jealous/whatever stuff that goes on in every thread.

I'm serious. Enough of it.

Trout and Harper both have Hamilton absolutely demolished in 4 out of the 5 tools.
