Bryce Harper, notable slugging superstar, has driven in 11 runners this year, and if that doesn’t sound that impressive, it is not.
One hundred eighty-seven other hitters have driven in that many or more as of Thursday morning, including less-heralded names like Garrett Hampson and Stephen Vogt, and Harper’s 11 runners driven in would be barely more than the eight that A.J. Pollock had on May 2 alone. Phillies
pitchers have five runs driven in, for comparison.
One might think that Harper is getting paid to put runs on the board, and because that is not happening, that he’s not having a strong season, but that’s not exactly right. It’s actually completely wrong. Harper has a slash line of .308/.433/.577 and a 1.010 OPS that, when expressed as a 181 OPS+, is one of the 10 best lines in baseball. He’s been a particularly bright spot in an up-and-down Phillies season.
