"Still only 16, Harper stands 6'3", weighs 205 pounds, has faster bat speed than Mark McGwire in his prime and runs so fast that he scored on wild pitches six times this season from second base. As a catcher he picks off runners from his knees, and when he pitches, he throws a fastball that has been clocked at 96 mph. "

"On Sunday, the sophomore from Las Vegas found his way into national headlines again when his father announced that Bryce will forgo his final two years of high school and use a GED to enroll in a community college this August. Though it more or less makes a mockery of our education system, the Harpers' plan would make Bryce eligible for the 2010 draft, where he could conceivably be the Nationals' No. 1 pick and eventually join forces with Stephen Strasburg to save Washington baseball from itself"

Damn!!! Thats crazy. But as odd as it sounds coming from me, if it was my child I would let him finish his last two years of high school then. Enjoy high school then go to the MLB.

What comes first the drug addiction or the career ending injury?

Growing up on the road with a bunch of minor league baseball players I say drug addiction. That or he'll beat up a hooker.
