“First Base Bryce” Incoming…

Bryce Harper playing first base this season is inevitable. It’s just a matter of when it will actually happen. Harper was supposed to make his Phillies’ debut at 1st against the Brewers, but Rob Thomson spoke with the media yesterday and informed fans that it will likely be pushed back to the series in Cleveland over the weekend.

Literally anything to prevent the likes of Darick Hall, Drew Ellis, and Kody Clemens playing first base on any type of consistent basis at the major league level, right?

Not to mention, moving Harper to first base will free up the DH spot, which could then primarily be used by Kyle Schwarber. The Phillies could then focus on adding a right-handed outfield bat and some pitching at the deadline with first base duties going to Harper.
