Philadelphia Phillies slugger Bryce Harper, 32, has expressed his desire to sign another extension with the Phillies.

“Bryce Harper has eight years remaining on his 13-year, $330 million contract that he signed in 2019,” MLB.com reported on April 19. He said he would like to extend his contract.”

In 1508 career major league games, Harper is batting .281 (1513-for-5384) with 306 home runs, 889 RBI, 997 runs scored, 133 doubles, and a .912 OPS.

“I definitely want to be here for a long time,” Harper emphasized, “but we’ll see what happens. I don’t think I’m going to go back to right field. I don’t think so. But I never say never,” he laughed. “The Phillies said in November that they don’t just see Harper as their starting first baseman this season, but as long as he plays for the Phillies until the end of his contract in 2031 (when he’ll be 38) or until he’s in his early 40s,” MLB.com reported, suggesting that Harper could be the Phillies’ starting first baseman for a long time.

I want to be on this team for a long time, I want to play into my 40s, that’s the most important thing to me. That’s the most important thing to me. That’s why I want to do it (sign an extension),” he said.
