its not tho

its about name recognition, Bryce is a star in the game already. He is putting up amazing numbers as a 19 year old in his first season. And is an important player for the best team in the national league.

This is just gonna be a circular convo now that you went back to the "amazing numbers as a 19 year old" thing so I'll ignore that. So you think Derek Jeter for example getting in last year with sub par numbers is the same as Bryce Harper getting in this year with sub par numbers? :dwillhuh: The thing about name recognition is it doesn't really mean anything if you haven't actually built a name for yourself. I get why he's in the game, I get why he's being hyped up, but for someone to try and really act like this kid deserves to be there is crazy. A perennial all star, gold glover and MVP candidate getting in off a meh first half is unfair but understandable. They earned that type of treatment. Harper has earned that treatment? Don't answer, that's a clown question, breh.:youngsabo:

I didnt tho... My first post said, "I get why people would be upset about Bryce being in the game."

I understand it completely.
