For all you guys, I just had a question answered in the Boston.com chat:
[Comment From Aaron]
Did you read the SI article on "baseball's LeBron"? What are the odds of this kid getting a fastball in the ear if he keeps up his pre-AB ritual?

Chad Finn: Haven't read it yet, but there was a big feature about Bryce Harper elsewhere several months ago that I saw. (Think it was AP, actually.) Sounds like he has a ton of talent and has his head screwed on relatively straight, but 16 is way too young to be judging any baseball player. There are just too many elements that can affect him between now and when he plays pro ball. For starters, let's see if he can hit a professional curveball before we call him the Chosen One.
