New York Yankees Editorial: 5 Reason Why Bryce Harper will be a New York Yankee

3. The Porch

Bryce Harper has light tower power, and is a left-handed hitter. As a Yankee fan you could only dream for that type of power in a left-handed bat. In 2019 it will become a reality. Bryce Harper’s casual fly balls will be home runs with the short porch. This porch has to be a major selling point when the Yankees pursue Harper. If you were Harper would you not want to play in a stadium that his tailored made for his swing? Don’t you think Harper wants to play in a hitter friendly stadium?

Bryce Harper will have his highest power numbers playing in Yankee Stadium. Just recently when the Nationals came to play the Yankees Bryce Harper hit a ball to centerfield, and it just kept going, going, and going for a monster home run. That short porch with Harper might not just make him have good number, but he will have video game numbers with that porch.

When the New York Yankees sign Bryce Harper, what do you think John Sterling’s home run call will be for his first home run? He will need a good one for Harper since Bryce will be hitting 50 home runs a year as a Yankee.
