All eyes on Bryce: His path back to ‘elite’ and what he needs from Phils originally appeared on NBC Sports Philadelphia
Phillies’ president Dave Dombrowski acknowledged Bryce Harper’s need to regain his elite status after a subpar 2025 season, where he posted an OPS of .844 and battled injuries. To support Harper’s return to form, the team must enhance their lineup, particularly by adding a strong right-handed hitter behind him, potentially allowing for a shift back to right field for Harper.
