They should breathe a sigh of relief now that the two sides have managed to work out a reasonable deal. Harper even missed the team's annual fan rally last weekend, making the stand-off even more worrisome for Nationals fans. (Mark Goldman/Icon Sportswire) If the timing of Bryce Harper’s message Sunday afternoon wasn’t on purpose, it was a hell of a coincidence. Harper moved on and ultimately latched on with the Phillies. The present-day equivalent was 244 million. However, 100 million of that would have been deferred, lowering the present-day value. Washington, however, were adamant that no such clause was part of the deal. Bryce Harper began his career with the Nationals. Washington Nationals’ GM Mike Rizzo talked at length, when he visited with 106.7 the FAN in D.C.’s Sports Junkies last week, about the 10-year/300M offer the Nationals made to Bryce Harper. At the end of the 2018 regular season, the club made him a 300 million offer. When the Nationals picked Harper first overall in 2010, they and agent Scott Boras negotiated a contract that, according to Boras, would give Harper the right to opt out of his prescribed 2015 salary of $1.5 million in favor of arbitration. The Nationals responded by offering him even less money a 12-year, 250 million deal with an even more. But when healthy, the youngster has certainly lived up to his five-tool potential. After Harper turned down the lowball first offer, he asked for a longer contract. He has missed 129 games over three seasons in the big leagues. After taking the league by storm with a Rookie of the Year campaign as a 19-year-old, Harper followed that up with an All-Star 2013 season, posting a. 273/.344/.423 with 13 home runs in 395 plate appearances, missing time with a thumb injury. Harper will make $2.5 million in 2015 and $5 million in 2016, according to CBS's Jon Heyman.
Harper’s first season in Philly did not live up to what the team was hoping for, but he has 12 more years to make up for it, and you know he will be working hard to prove he’s worth it.Outfielder Bryce Harper and the Washington Nationals will avoid a grievance hearing over his 2015 salary after the two sides reached middle ground on Sunday evening with a two-year, $7.5 million contract. The Washington Nationals reportedly used the last day of the 2018 regular season to make a 'mega offer' to right fielder Bryce Harper, but he wasnt interested in accepting it and missing out on. His strikeout total was the highest of his career. 260/.372/.510 with 35 home runs and 114 RBI last season. Harper rejected a 300 million dollar deal (with close to 100 million in deferrals) from the Nationals during the season, but GM Mike Rizzo said earlier this. At the end of the 2018 regular season, the club made him a 300 million offer. He did not want opt-outs because he wanted to show his next team that he was going to be there for the long haul and end questions about his future. Before outfielder Bryce Harper signed a record 13-year, 330 million contract with the Phillies, the six-time All-Star was trying to remain with the Washington Nationals. Harper ended up signing a 13-year deal with the Phillies for $330 million.
So what about the Phillies appealed to him beyond the money? Harper says he liked how hard people worked in Philadelphia. Sources told MLB. Lastly, Harper shared that the Astros gave him a 1-year offer for “stupid” money. The Dodgers were also involved in the process but he did not care for their offer because he knew he would deal with constant questions about his future if he signed a short-term deal. Philadelphia Phillies right fielder Bryce Harper signed a 13-year, 330 million deal with his new team this past offseason, but he reportedly could have. He initially was skeptical about the Phillies and didn’t see a deal with them happening.
He met with the Giants but they gave him pause because Harper thought they were going to be rebuilding. Harper says he felt the White Sox had a lot to offer and liked that they were up-and-coming.
