Philadelphia Phillies

On February 28 news broke that Bryce Harper, a Major League Baseball outfielder, would end his free angency by signing with the Philadelphia Phillies.

Contract

The Phillies offered Bryce Harper a historic contract that includes

  • 13 years
  • $330 million, an average annual value of about $25 million
  • No opt outs (Bryce is not allowed to optout of his contact)
  • A no trade claus (No matter how he performes, the Phillies are not allowed to trade him)

After spending his entire MLB career wearing number 34, the former NL MVP will be making another big change. Bryce Harper will be wearing number 3 with the Phillies. This change is not so much for his rebranding, but rather to honor the late Roy Halladay. The former Phillies' pitched died in a plane crash last year.
