Bryce in the Derby is gunna be quite a show. Though he's been injured for a bit, he was THE best player in the NL until he got hurt.

As of may 26th, the last game he played before his injury, he was hitting .287 with 12 HR and 23 RBI in 44 games. He was having a really good season from a power numbers standpoint, but he was nowhere near the best player in the NL when he got hurt.

Compare Harper to two guys on the Brewers, for example (stats as of may 28th)

Bryce Harper: .287 AVG, 29 runs, 7 doubles, 1 triple, 12 HR, 23 RBI, 2 SB, 2 CS. .386 OBP/.587 SLG/.973 OPS

Carlos Gomez: .331 AVG, 28 runs, 13 doubles, 3 triples, 10 HR, 25 RBI, 9 SB, 2 CS. .376 OBP/.611 SLG/.987 OPS

Jean Segura: .365 AVG, 30 runs, 6 doubles, 5 triples, 8 HR, 22 RBI, 14 SB, 1 CS. .400 OBP/.569 SLG/.969 OPS

Bryce has incredible upside, but he's not at any point been the best player in the NL this season, in my humble opinion.

In looking at his numbers, he went off in April and May was below average. I wonder how long he was having injury issues with his atrocious May.

Bryce himself stated he should've gone on the DL a month before he actually did. He was on fire at the beginning of the season, but a series of injuries hampered him and his averages dropped. Since returning, he's had quite a few nice games so far. Nothing like first at bat after coming off the DL and hitting a HR on the 2nd pitch.

That's terrible news.

Nothing tears me up more than seeing a kid having to battle some terminal disease.

I will say a prayer for his family. I can't imagine how they feel right now.

Here are two pictures of Bryce Harper in regards to Gavin Rupp (who died earlier this week).

The top picture: This picture was probably taken after the Nats game with the Brewers last night. Note the "GR" on his hat. That "GR" is for Gavin Rupp.

The bottom picture: Taken at the All-Star game when Bryce was "standing up" for Gavin Rupp.
