Rhys Hoskins Sounds VERY Excited About Bryce Harper

One of the best things about adding Bryce Harper to the Phillies lineup other than, you know, BRYCE HARPER IS NOW IN THE HEART OF THE PHILLIES LINEUP, is that Rhys Hoskins is now surrounded by hitters that can flat-out rake.
The 25-year-old hasn’t had much help since arriving at the end of the 2017 season, but even without help, he’s managed to launch 52 homers and post an .889 OPS over 872 plate appearances. Now, Hoskins enters his prime, protected by guys like Harper and J.T. Realmuto, and he seems to be understandably excited by it:
Rhys Hoskins pointed to a picture of the last out of the 2008 World Series and said “I don’t want to hear about it anymore. I want to feel it.”

Hey Rhys, I, too, want to feel it. So bad. In fact, we all want to feel it. Let’s all feel it together, after the jump:
