The 32-year-old future Hall of Famer is batting .234 with a .786 OPS, a 119 OPS+, six home runs, 17 RBIs, and 26 walks to 31 strikeouts through his first 128 at-bats. These are fine numbers for the average player, but Harper is a different story entirely.

Bryce Harper is frustrated with his early season struggles, even after homering in the Phillies' loss Sunday against the Diamondbacks.
