It’s been a shit year for Bryce Harper, measured against expectations, and even aside from the Nationals being an even bigger disappointment than usual.

Ryan Fraser Is The Best Little Fella In The Premier League
Bournemouth winger Ryan Fraser is extremely cool.

Beefiest Chum Luke Voit Has To Do Something With All That Surplus Power
The one-armed bench press seems like a fine strength training exercise, although probably there are better ways of doing it than with a full barbell smashing off your chest.
