At the game tonight, Harper started to get some legit boo's from the home crowd.

0 for 4 with 2 K's and that ridiculous dropped fly ball lmao. I was in the second row in right field, right behind him and couldnt believ that happened.

Hes hitting like .240 this season. Gonna need a bit more bud

Get ready it's gonna get worst. Bryce Harper looks like hes baseballed out. I've been saying this for a couple years now. They had this kid play 145 games of baseball when he was 16. This kid has actually played a full career already. He's looking like an old ball player! And forget the boos everyone gets booed at some point in Philly. Just ask santa. Wait til they start ripping him in the media. This kid loves his belly rubbed. He's to soft for that shit. He's gonna want out of there quick!

Eh idk, a bit early to jump to these conclusions lol

It's a slump, but he will get hot and swing the bat strong again.

Over his last 22 games, dating back to that Sunday matinee against the Twins, Harper is hitting just .188/.330/.363. Take out his five-hit performance at Coors Field on April 19 and Harper's slash line tumbles to .137/.300/.301 during that span. On Tuesday night, as their newly signed right fielder stumbled his way through another hitless performance against rookie pitcher Spencer Turnbull and the Detroit Tigers' bullpen, the crowd at Citizens Bank Park pelted Harper with boos. He empathized with them.

"I'd do the same thing," Harper told MLB.com's Todd Zolecki. "It’s not fun to lose, it’s not fun to watch when you’re playing that way. (I was) 0-for-4 with two punchies (strikeouts), I'm probably thinking the same thing walking back to the dugout."

The question, then, is what exactly is ailing Harper, whose .338 expected weighted on-base average (xwOBA) since the second week of April dubiously lags behind those produced by Mark Reynolds, Ian Desmond, and even Chris Davis.
