Nationals' brass meeting about Bryce Harper's shoulder
Washington Nationals general manager Mike Rizzo held a meeting with right fielder Bryce Harper, trainer Paul Lessard and manager Dusty Baker to discuss Harper's right shoulder issues, per Chelsea Janes of the Washington Post.
What It Means:
The team has been strangely secretive about Harper's health. Reports have been emerging about his struggling with neck and shoulder pain (including a troubling quote that said Harper "could barely throw the ball 40 feet"), but the Nationals have been shooting down these reports.
It has been a rough year from the dish for Harper, with a career-low .242 batting average, as well as a .346 wOBA and .202 ISO that are both well below his career-averages.
