Not to play devil's advocate but when I was his age, I made a ton of mistakes. Mike Trout is benefiting greatly (IMO) from having Pujols around as a mentor...Harper, whether he'd be receptive to one or not, has never had another great hitter to learn from. There are enough players in MLB that, if one disappoints me, I just move on to the next 'flavor of the week'. There will always be some good, high-quality guys out there performing everyday like our opinions matter to them...and that's something to be thankful for. I can enjoy a spectacular defensive play no matter who does it and no matter who they do it against. Admittedly, it's a little harder to appreciate a bunch of home runs coming against your 'favorite' team (ex: this past weekend Dodgers doing it to the Braves). I love a great pitchers' duel, though I do have my favorite pitchers and would prefer that they be the ones who come out on top. There's a lot to like out there! .

I blame Baker in part. When they started pitching around Harper with regularity, instead of leaving a slumping Zimmerman hitting behind him, he should have put Murphy there who is the leading hitter in baseball. Hard to pitch around a guy when a guy hitting .390 is next. He eventually did that but it took a long time. In the meantime Harper dropped like 100 points.
