Bryce Harper 2015 might be the best season in recent memory, at least since Barry Bonds. 22 year old Bryce Harper lit up the post-Bonds world. Bryce Harper was the most hyped draft prospect ever. It started with his high school seasons, as well as his sick Bryce Harper Juco highlights. He won Rookie of the Year, and baseball seemed poised to become Trout vs Harper for the next decade.
2015 represented the best season we saw from the Bryce Harper Nationals years. He dominated to the tune of .330/.460/.649 slash line, and also put up the highest wRC+ since Barry Bonds. It's no shock that this culminated in a Bryce Harper MVP, the first (and so far only) of his career. So when he failed to reach those great heights in the following few seasons, baseball fans were perplexed. Is Bryce Harper overrated? Many seem to think so. In fact, it's possible that, if anything, we now live in a Bryce Harper underrated time. After all, how can you argue that someone is the most overrated player in baseball if everyone agrees?
Some other things we'll discuss include comparisons to Mike Trout and Christian Yelich, the expected value of Bryce Harper Phillies contract, as well as an examination of Bryce Harper defense and Bryce Harper WAR.
I hope you all enjoy this episode of Baseball Bits, a Foolish Baseball production. The status of MLB seems shaky as I write this, so hopefully I can continue to entertain regardless of how much baseball is actually being played.

Harpers swing is in a league of its own. Its just so violent and yet smooth
Please please please do a video on Greg Maddux
AthleticFatKid could say the same about pujols in his prime
If you have time, please explain how Bryce Harper brought the title to D.C. Was it the compensation the Nationals got for his free agent departure? Was it the payroll freed up by his leaving? Was it a lift in clubhouse morale or the realization that he was no longer there for the team to ride on?
Pardon my denseness: I'm just missing how his subtraction from the squad fulfilled his prophecy.
6:25 how’d you find that stat out? not saying it’s wrong i just find that stat interesting and i wanna look at a bunch of people and how they hit pitchers different amount of times
His 2015 season was a monster, but I also went to College of Southern Nevada, and I'm pretty sure he never matched my 102% in Introduction to Biological Anthropology.
I'm making a video about you next
I’m making a video about you next
Itz Ashh! Wow what an original Idea
I think Introduction to Biological Anthropology is the title for an episode of Community.
Don't forget your 100% strikeout with women.
"A frustrated Harper thought he popped out, but actually went yard."
I wish to one day be that good of a baseball player.
Don't sell yourself short, the wind in Wrigley works miracles! (unless it's blowing in, in which case good luck)
its possible if you hit it down the line in polo grounds
I wish to one day be that good of an anything
@@FoolishBaseball Yeah watch Javier Baez's HR in Game 1 of the 2016 NLDS. It was absolutely destroyed, but somehow only landed in the basket above the wall.
He thought the opposite of what really happened... how good can he be?? Lol
Me watching this in 2021 watching Harper break out again, god Bailey you’re a genius
Good chance he wins a 2nd MVP this season. Dude is on his way to a 1st ballot hall of fame career.
Me 2
Yea odds are he will as of right now and this is coming from a padre fan
Hes a genius, which is why I love his videos. He knows what hes talking about and deserves a front office role for being able to be so in depth and predict this shit
@@zanebaltz5355 I'm hoping so but Soto really had a monster run to end the season. I really think it's between Bryce and him. Tatis unfortunately didn't finish as strong and had that narrative going against him with the Padres collapse. Sorry about your team my dude. I wanted to see playoff Dads again.
That "not a question of if, but when" line sure aged well

The most hilarious bit was showing Trout as his BRef page instead of an actual pic. Bravo.
That's all you need, baby
He was already disliked, and then the Nationals won without him, which poured a tanker of gasoline on a bonfire.
Yeah but he brought the title to DC like he promised
Agreed. I think there's something very simple the video is forgetting, especially if we are going to talk about perception. I'd say perception is Harper is an asshole and Trout is more likeable....that's it. No science, no numbers. Harper comes across like a dick and some people can't wait to have a reason to talk shit about him
Foolish Baseball for which we are eternally grateful. Honestly no hate to him anymore. Our team’s moved on and I hope he has too.
@@Falllll He's talked numerous times about how happy he was for his former Nats teammates. I'm sure he feels a little bit jealous but I think he's happy in Philly.
Good thing he went to Philadelphia, a city known for its measured and rational sports opinions.
Now I guess Bryce is “Jay Bruce with 2 MVP seasons.” If only he played for an organization that surrounded him with real MLB players.
This aged poorly
@@lurkintomgaming397 Because they actually surrounded him with a real team
@@lurkintomgaming397 this aged great what do you mean lmfaoo. The Phillies had glaring weaknesses a few years ago and they fixed those holes.
@@yankeesforlife24This feels poignant again, seeing as the Phillies choked in the NLCS
He had the same OPS as acuna last year, who some people practically think is the next coming of Christ
Soto is better than both
Acuna's OPS really wasn't that good considering how many homers he hit. Soto's was much better
Don't use my love of Ronald Acuña Jr. against me like that
And through 2 years of play acuna has been better than bryce’s first two years compare apples to apples
Acuña straight up has the highest upside of any player in the majors except Trout
Hey thats me! Wait, i shouldnt be happy cuz i made a stupid statement cuz its clear. HARPER is GOOD
BREAKING: GiraffeNeckMarc flip flops on Harper
@@FoolishBaseball God tier videeo m8
So you retract your statement as soon as Foolish calls you out on it, yeah okay
@@GiraffeNeckMarc sounds like your a little overhyped with your baseball knowledge now... 😂😂😂😂😂😂✌✌
@@GiraffeNeckMarc Dear sir, you love The Mets. Harper is a Phillie. I rest my case. ;P
The National's won the championship: Absolutely Bryceless
i've never heard that joke before, good one
Yeah but only because Harper said he was going to bring a title to DC. He's that good.
Wow so original
Yknow. There are plenty of players who are hall of famers that have never won a title in their careers. In all sports. Look at the sedins in hockey or Joe Thornton. Dont get me wrong a title is a great accolade but its also not... you can sit the bench the entire season and win a title
Good joke I feel like if he played for them they wouldn’t have won because the chemistry would’ve being brought down
I'd love to see you do a video on Mike Mussina - the greatest "almost" player of all time who finally got his due in Cooperstown
That's a good name
He and Andy Pettitte pitched their heart out in the 2003 WS but then...
First ballot in the “Hall of Very Good”
Mussina is not a hall of famer. He had like one good season in the early 90's lol.
Imagine having 2 perfect games come apart in the 9th. That has to be demoralizing

Hey
Could you do a video about all the people that don’t deserve to in the Hall of Fame but are, and the people who aren’t in the Hall, but deserve to be. It could be a series, with each player taking up one episode. Basically a series of episodes similar to the Larry Walker one, which it my favorite. Keep up the great work!
Lol
lmfao Fuzzy didnt even realize he was in this video
The fact that he was on the cover of SI as a 16 year-old and has become the player he is today is nothing short of amazing.
I did play for the Braves when I was a 6-year-old, though.
Yep your not a braves that's for sure
shout out Jeff francour
@@FoolishBaseball go braves
"He's got 12 more years left on an MLB roster..."
*Laughs in Rob Manfred*
This video keeps aging extremely well
NLCS MVP. I can’t believe I’m able to say that. Go Phillies!
It seems like after 2020, Bryce has stabilized his skill set. He's got another MVP, an NLCS MVP, and he nearly drug a team to the playoffs last year all by himself. Bryce Harper in the second half of 2021 was similar to what Aaron Judge did for the Yankees in the second half of this year.
His injury this year is the best thing ever for the Phillies. It allowed him to come back for just long enough to knock the rust off, then lock him fully in when playoffs came. I am so glad that the Phillies got enough help for him this year, so they didn't need him full time to make the Playoffs. It has allowed us to witness a man going BEAST MODE!!!!
It's not the 5 HR he's hit, or the doubles, or all the walks he is drawing... It's the damn timing. He is doing all this in very high leverage situations. That HR he first hit, tied the game. The second HR of the series won the damn game. He scored tying runs, winning runs on the basepaths, ect.
It's reminding people of why he's the reigning MVP. In 2021 it wasn't that he hit like 30 doubles and 20 HR in the second half that was impressive, it was that over half of them came with his team trailing or tied to give his team the lead.
Too bad y'all didn't win #LFGM

@@PJ.Rob06 so was I. Man if you can’t take it don’t dish it out
And here he is obtaining his 2nd MVP award only a year after this video.. love to see it.
Who’s here in 2021 when Harper is putting up an mvp szn
crazy to see this video in 2023. and his contract is indeed undervalued
This channel is like CZcams crack for me in that I just can't get enough and I'm always smiling and laughing like a mad man when I get more
Glad to hear it! I'm doing my best to give people more in a timely fashion.
@@FoolishBaseball As far as I'm concerned young man, you are doing God's work lol. Your videos are both informative and hilarious. One of if not my favorite CZcamsr, keep up the good work!
I too enjoy baseball crack cocaine
honestly, this video made me appreciate mike trout some more
It's really hard for me to make a video without talking about how good Mike Trout is
2 years later it's all starting to make sense to yall
"The Nats settled for 2nd in the east without a Wild Card berth."
Angels: *Only 1 playoff appearance in Trout's career*
How do you like them apples 😂👌
Also Trout went 1 for 12 in that playoff series against the Royals.
I'm sick of the "greatest player the league has ever seen" thing without any appearances. If he gets there, struggles some like 3 for 12 or more, I'm still fine with him. That would be his 2nd playoff stint on a terrible team. But he just doesn't get there, so you can't keep saying greatest ever if they never get that every day ace treatment of the post season.
@@samilles472 And Bryce Harper is a career .211 hitter in the playoffs, and has never made it out of the first round in 4 tries.
@@AlexSmith-tz2lf you act as though he has control over his team making the playoffs. This isn't football or basketball, one person cant carry a team
As a baseball fan, I understood that the 300m he was being paid would be a fraction of his jersey/ticket sales. Most did not.
Rip to all the previous comments
Nobody, not a soul:
Foolish Baseball: We *have* to talk about Bonds
We’re on to your Bailey. You saw Bryce hit the home run tonight and hopped in your time machine to make this video 2 years before to it happened. Harper wins MVP and then does this?!? You ain’t fooling anyone
Bryce Harper isn’t overrated he’s just inconsistent
Inconsistency has its downs, but it certainly has its ups.
Foolish Baseball great video. I’m a Braves fan but Harper is one of my favorite players in the league. Can’t wait for him to break out again
@@BillyLPrice That inconsistent might hurt him in the future. We talking about baseball here, where consistency play a major role in both achievements and HOF resume. Voters will keep shitting on him with his lack of awards and inconsistency, unless Bryce has more "ups" in his career or became Barry Bonds without balance breakfast.
Huong Dieu Your entire statement doesn’t make sense for several reasons. He’s already achieved a TONNN in his 8 year career. NL ROY, 200+ HR, MVP, HR Derby Champ, and has made the All-Star game almost every year. He’s another MVP and a World Series ring away from being an automatic HoF, has the possibility of hitting 600 HR (unlikely but 500 is certainly attainable) due to the DH. And you said it yourself “inconsistent”...yes, he is, but when he’s on he’s ON FIRE. Those stretches boost his numbers dramatically and allow him to rack up the stats. Nobody will care about inconsistency when voting for him because he’ll have ridiculous numbers to back up his play. He also proved he is a borderline elite defender last season which will naturally help his cause. 30 career WAR and counting....275 avg, 200 HR, and nearly averages 100 walks and 100 RBI a season with around .900 OPS. He’s a no doubt HoF if he keeps it up and he’s just hit his prime. It really doesn’t matter how inconsistent he is season-to-season because his “bad” seasons are still good if not great seasons for most other players
@@benballier9580 You comments as if I hate Bryce. Him and J.T are my two favorite Phillies, I just think that his inconsistent MIGHT hurt him in the future, and that "hurt" is that he may not be first ballot.
Maybe one day you could make a video about Big Daddy Vladdy? He swung at everything and smoked it in the process lmao
Vlad was a joy to watch
Vlad was incredible. He hit homers on the bounce like he was playing cricket. He once hit a home run rather than accept an intentional walk. His every at bat was a must watch moment.
I second that request
@Harry Engel yes, in 2002 Vlad put up 40 stolen bases but fell short with 39 home runs.
For comparison to the graph at 7:54 in the video:
As of mid-September 2021, Bryce Harper has a a 0.436 wOBA for the 2021 season. So *MVP-level, at about how halfway between his great 2017 season and his monstrous 2015 season.* The Phillies are also contending for a division lead, and the Nationals are nowhere near playoff contention.
here we are at Bryce Harper’s 2nd MVP season
HES BREAKING OUT AGAIN BOYS!
And he’s only 29, he’s gonna do it like 2-3 more times at least
Something good to finally watch
Finally some good f**king food
Foolish Baseball no make a video about the Miami Marlins and then horrible trades

This aged like a fine wine.
"It's only a matter of when"
2021 season: .302 avg .417 obp 1.008 ops 26 HR 61 RBI's
so far
NLCS MVP now
There’s something amusing seeing how fans treat Harper like the devil to contrast Trout being baseballs lord and saviour Jesus.
Even though play style wise they are extremely similar
Harper has somewhat reluctantly been a good villain
Harper is an asshole on the field. Seems like a nice guy off the field but that isn’t what most fans see
Is there something amusing about it? Guess you had to be there.
Us Phillies fans adore him, probably because he’s an intense dude. And he seems to like the city too, which is a huge plus for Philadelphians.
crazy that mike trout had an entire hall of fame career from 2012-2020
And good for him too, because he hasn't been nearly the same player since. He's been decently productive when he's played, but injuries have wrecked these last few seasons. He'll get his plaque without any hassle five years after he retires.
Arguably my favourite CZcams channel going today. The wide variety of topics, crazy statistics and in depth research that goes into every video, it’s all incredible. Thank you FB
Foolish Baseball is doing more for the game than the MLB itself.
Who’s here after he just won NL MVP for the 2021 season? You’re a visionary, Bailey
I just rewatched this after he just hit the game winning homer for the Phillies to go to the WS.
Another banger Bailey! I loved the balance between comedy and stats! Really starting to miss and think about baseball right now. I have been watching a ton of twitch to fill my time, wishing I could be watching or listening to some baseball games now.
I love mike trouts picture in the 200 hr mvp and 35 fwar graphic just being his stat page 😂
I love me some bryce harper, one of the best eye in the game. When he gets frustrated from lack of hitable pitches he starts to hack.
That's true. He wears his frustrations on his sleeve.
Watching this after Harper won his second MVP season and man Bailey was right on point with this
Watching this after his 2nd mvp and that homer in 2022 NLCS is wild
Love your videos!! Watch them EVERYDAY while working!! Very informative content!!! Would love to see more videos on the Braves!! In particular Ronald Acuna Jr, Gary Sheffield and the elite run that the Braves are currently on for the 2023 season!! I pride myself on being the biggest Braves fan on the planet and absolutely love watching content on the Braves and baseball in general. Thanksand as always....... GO BRAVES!!!
Watching the day after he won the 2021 NL MVP. Love ya, Bailey. You're a champ!
So glad this shows how good Harper is and that he isn’t overrated
He’s overrated
dc07932 I agree, he is overrated, at least compared to how many think of him, as he was wildly lucky in 2015 and lucky in 2017, based on his underlying peripherals of way outperforming his xOPS and xWOBA (specifically in 2015). By FG, he has only been All-Star caliber in three seasons (5+ fWAR, and I’m counting his 2013 and 2017 years as he was injured). His defense is below-average by UZR and the defensive spectrum even taking out his 2018 season. He has had two seasons with a wRC+ above 140. He has underperformed his peripherals these past couple seasons, so he may be due for some positive regression, but don’t expect a guy who will put up consistent .950+ OPS and 145 wRC+ figures. He’s just not that type of hitter.
For his contract he is overrated
He gets paid far too much money for how barely above average he is now.
Was good*
Watching this a year later and seeing Harper’s second MVP season...😏
Your videos are FUN, not to mention stuffed with statgasmic info. Top notch. 👌

Great video, Bryce Harper is the Final Fantasy VII of baseball. He was thought of as overrated for so long he became underrated.

PS: THE MLB IS FINE, TREVOR BAUER SAYS BASEBALL WILL ALWAYS BE THERE. REMAIN HOPEFUL!
I love this series!
Glad to hear it!
Harper's amazing 2015 proved what all the hype was for and cemented him as one of the most talented players in the game. At age 22 it seemed like the best was yet to come, so even though his numbers were still strong, even really good in 2017, it just felt like a huge letdown overall.
Hmmmmmmmmm
Great job, my guy! As someone who played D1, had Tommy john, wrote professionally in the SABR community for a while, and with a brother in a front office, there's nothing that connects the dots between stats and entertainment quite like this.
Love the soundtrack. Reminiscent of yoshi's island (the beginning at least). Great vid as usual broman
Good stuff. Would be great to see a supplemental breakdown of what happened to Harper after his 2016 month of April-- after he took home Player of the Month, and fresh off of his 2015 MVP season. For fans, it seems like things started to go down hill after a particular series in the Windy City. Did Joe Maddon and the Cubs break Bryce Harper? (EDITED: corrected spelling.)
Bryce Harper is Jay Bruce with 2 MVP Seasons
💀
Not really sure how I found your channel but I’m glad I did and I’ve already burned through all your videos. Good stuff as always.
Pretty cool how everything in the video comes to fruition again in 2021
As of 2022, we found out 2015 was indeed not a one off
I'm from 2021. Bryce Harper is hitting like a god again, its not to his 2015 season, but more like his 2017 season if he stayed healthy. I just love myself some Bryce Harper, hes my favorite non-Red Sox player.
December now. 2021 NL MVP
I never comment on videos but your channel is the best man... I share it with everyone saying if you love baseball your channel will make you love it more (and if you don’t love baseball it’ll make you love baseball haha). Keep up the good work!
I have always been a nats fan, and Harper was my favorite player up until last year, he had the most entertaining season I’ve ever seen and it’s a shame we didn’t get him or scherzer to the playoffs that year. He’s always put up numbers anytime even in the postseason but we were never able to get over the hump with him. He’s a fun player and I wish him the best(especially since we just got a ring without him)
You know who's underrated? Tim Keefe
get out
Greg bird
When I saw Bud Selig I almost cried, the feeling of a good commissioner.
That’s bold
lol he was not a good commissioner, although the sport did at least grow under his watch
I can't believe I made it in your video! The white Red Sox jersey at 5:23! I always enjoy your videos, but this one will have a special place in my heart haha.
Throwback to the good ole days when the go-to debate was harper vs trout...now it's soto v acuna. excited to see how that one turns out
Paul Goldschmidt is the most underrated and undervalued player ever.
i'm a giants fan he always used to fuck us up i stg scariest player i watched bat against us lmao.
Ever? He's not even the most underrated and undervalued player in the NL Central division.Eugenio Saurez
y t Eugenio Suarez has only had two good seasons so far
Goldy is on a HOF track and no one knows it
@@prestonjones20013 His peak is done (it was absolutely HOF worthy) but counting stats are way too low currently. He needs a strong resurgence, and at age 32 that seems unlikely. He got started late.
I remember when Trout and Harper's careers were first starting, thinking that Harper was gonna be the better player than Trout. Oh how wrong I was lol. He's still very good though
Harper didn't have the benefit of talking hitting with Albert Pujols every day.
Felix Marvin you’re acting like pujols is the hitting coach
I think Harper could be as good as Trout. Harper is a head case though.
I've been saying this. I'm a Phillies fan, and when I heard about the contract I was very wary. Obviously he started out slow last year, probably bc he was a late arrival to spring training, but watching him bust his ass every day on the field gave me a ton of respect for what the guy does.
Shout out to MLB for shouting you out, I'm glad I've found your channel!!
As a jays fan I kinda want a vid about our 2015 and 2016 teams. Man those were great teams, we definitely coulda won it all.
Nah need a video about my 2015 royals
One of the best teams not to win it all in recent memory. Such a fun team to watch
Great video! You really summarized what Phillies fans have been saying all year. I don’t know why you had to come for my boy Aaron Nola though
I didn't want to gas up Phillies fans too much
As a Phillies fan I can handle Aaron Nola getting the spray bottle like a puppy climbing on the furniture but as a Ben Rivera/1993 Phillies fan boy did you have to show Tony Gwynn making Ben his bitch. He went 13-9 in 1993...13-9!!!! (Insert King Felix joke here). It could have something to with that run scoring machine that they had offensively but it could have been raw power as well.
Timestamp of Nola? Dont remember it
Thomas DeTitta 4:33
Very strong points! Love your videos! Very well executed!
loved that analogy in the beginning
The Aaron Nola part had me laughing so hard
bad dog
NOLA disappeared after his one great season. 1 hit wonder.
@@nickthrane4940 That was only two seasons ago. Remember when people were saying Verlander, Greinke, Halladay, Hamels, and Cole "fell off" after 1 or 2 bad seasons? Phillies had a bad pitching coach last year. Normally I wouldn't blame the coach but literally every pitcher on the team got worse from 2018 to 2019.
You should do a vid on the most underrated hitter of the 90s, Albert Belle!
EDIT: should read most forgotten not underrated
Underrated by who? The sportswriters who held grudges? Baseball fans knew how well he could hit.
@@vindog2461 Maybe forgotten is a better word. Definitely underrated (or screwed) by BBWAA Should have won at least 1 MVP, arguably 2 or even 3. Only on the hall of fame ballot 2x I believe. But yeah, forgotten is a better word, because nearly everybody did not want to face him with the game on the line from 93-99, so he was adequately respected/rated. IMO Top 10 hitter of the 90s, Top 25 hitter of the last 30 years which should be enough for HoF. No denying that he was a huge prick though!
@@drewmartin9148 He made his utter disdain for sportswriters very clear, so they held it against him in the voting
Maybe that's the topic he should cover. How the writers were haters
Indians fan chiming in to say that the '95 team was what made me a sports fan and i will always insist that Albert should've been the MVP that year. First player in history to hit 50 homers & 50 doubles...and in a *shortened season* no less!
11:44 Goldschmidt again...the guy is soo good...and nobody talks about him...
The real underrated one on the league.
Love your channel and videos, keep it up
I like how Bryce harper’s pixel beard looks like a chess board
checkmate
This video has aged well with Harper fighting for MVP with Tatis right now
And atm he looks a couple steps ahead
the quality of these is insanely good
Three seasons later he's been consistently great. He and Altuve are my current favorites. Love their gritty games .
I’m not hating on Harper now, he’s a great player, but imagine if he kept going after 2015 and we could’ve had so many debates about who’s the best player in baseball
@Blake O'Boyle no doubt
If he hit a 200 OPS+ for the next 5 years he’d be next to Bonds and Ruth as the best hitters
This is perfection.
Definitely my fav vid of yours man, glad u have sense cus it’s sooooo annoying when ppl say he’s overrated he’s my fav player ever so I might be biased but nah u pulled up the stats and everything, Bryce is still hella good when he’s not playing at mvp level which he will again 👀 like u said it’s not a matter of if it’s a matter of when... keep the great content comin🤙🏾
Well the breakout is now and it is awesome. Foolish nailed it!
