Which means things should heat up.
Harper is coming off a season in which he posted a .249/.393/.496 slash line with 34 home runs and 13 stolen bases in 159 games.
The 26-year-old won unanimous National League MVP honors back in 2015 as a 22-year-old, authoring a 1.109 OPS.
Who will eventually win the right to grossly overpay Harper?
Hard to say at this point.
