May 26 2018
What’s up with Harper’s low BA? … Fantasy owners were all-in on Bryce Harper (OF, WAS) heading into 2018, as evidenced by his 9 ADP in NFBC leagues, following an impressive, albeit injury-shortened, 2017 campaign in which he batted .319 with 29 HR in 420 AB. While Harper has delivered 15 HR through his first 164 AB of 2018, he is also sporting a dreadful .232 BA. Is there cause for concern?
