Think that it’s all over now that Bryce Harper has signed with the Phillies? - Gabe Kapler: In a way, Kapler was already under the gun already even if a big-ticket free agent didn’t show up in Clearwater. Should the Phillies get off to a slow start, Kapler will race to the top of the charts of “first manager to get fired” odds. Both of those players could be huge pieces in the Phillies potential deal to get another top caliber starting pitcher. The Phillies now have three legitimate MVP candidates in Harper, Hoskins and Realmuto.
