I'm sure many of you sports addicts have already read up on this kid, but if you haven't, do yourself a favor and watch this video (Skip the annoying ads). Bryce Harper, a 16 year old from Las Vegas, is basically the most highly touted baseball prospect of all time. The 16 year old catcher has blazing fast speed, hits home runs over 500 feet and throws a 96 MPH fastball. They say his skill level as a sophomore is equivalent to the skill that other once-a-decade prospects Alex Rodriguez and Justin Upton had as SENIORS. Give this kid two years and he'll be throwing 100 MPH gas and hitting the ball 600 feet consistently. Many are saying he is the Lebron James of baseball. I'm way down. Mets?

Sorry Nick, He's going to the Yanks
"Be in the Hall of Fame, definitely," says Harper when asked by Verducci about his goals. "Play in Yankee Stadium. Play in the pinstripes. Be considered the greatest baseball player who ever lived. I can't wait."
