    Terrible news for the Nats. Looks like Harper tore his ACL and PCL.

    Never was a big fan of Harper I think he is a Hot Dog but I never want to see a player get hurt.

    Just saw video of that play, Harper took a real hard fall. I don't like to see any player lose his livelihood at any time. The man makes dome bad moves but I don't deny his baseball ability. Hope he recovers well and gets back to his team.

    Slipped right across the soaking wet base. Surprised more injuries like that don't happen rather than cancel a game when playing conditions suck they play through it.

    Turns out significant bone bruise and somehow no ligament damage. He is expected to return this season

    Lucky kid, with age on his side. Lucky as hell no Ligament damages and worse, or surely in due time over 10 yrs, such would shorten a career.

    Lucky as hell to evade any scalpel, never a good thing. A bit too brash, cocky, he's plaing the 400mil sweepstakes. Imagine how a legit tear(s) would of changed the course of that discussions $$$ and yrs.
