It's a shame that some people get these labels attached to them when there is really no logical reason for it. There is a world of difference between being cocky and confident. Harper is nothing more than confident and he has every reason to be.

I have to disagree with you, he isnt just confident, it is at the level of cocky. All the interviews I've read about him he comes off as a real d-bag. He may not be but that's just the way he comes off.

And the pitchers throwing at him is NOT an excuse. Those pitchers are not the number 1 prospect, he is. Therefor he needs to present himself in a certain way because of the amount of people, especially kids look up to him. That is not how he should be acting, regaurdless of if pitchers are throwing at him or not.

Just looking at the ratings, blocking should be in the 30s or so at the highest. Arm Accuracy should be 65-69, power from both sides should start off in the 70s (Like 78 vs. R, 72 vs. L) since based on power grades, only Giancarlo Stanton and Harper have an 80 in their Power grade from professional scouts.

He has never appeared that way to me.

Also, I didn't say that it was an excuse.

For the record, he wasn't just thrown at by two of their pitchers. One of them stared him down and yelled something at him after the inning on his way back to the dugout.

People need to spend less time getting involved in and paying attention to the soap opera aspects that the infotainment media presents its watchers and readers with.

Still not an excuse for him to act that way. I mean you have you're opinion and I have mine. In my opinion he is a big d-bag.

Here's one of the interviews that I've read that, in my opinion, substantiates the fact that he's a d-bag.

Well, everyone except one person who has replied to this thread, probably a relative , agrees that he has some growing up to do at the very least. I think that pretty much sums up the opinion of the sports fan world.
