TEAMS: New York Yankees, Washington Nationals
When we last checked in with Bryce Harper this offseason, he was lounging by a pool in the Bahamas and rooting on the Yankees in the playoffs.
On Wednesday, Harper reached out to (future teammate?) Yankee Robinson Cano on Twitter for an offseason workout. No big deal, right? Just the Yankees and Harper, again.
Now, if ever there was a lefty hitter to emulate, it would be Robinson Cano. Got it. But could someone from the Nationals PR department please, please, get Ryan Zimmerman and/or Jayson Werth set up with Twitter accounts so Harper can ask *them* to swing it with him this offseason?

ETA: 2012
Don’t look now, but it appears the Yankees will graduate a quality young starting pitcher to the Big Leagues for the second consecutive season. Banuelos’ 5-foot-11 and 155-pound frame certainly does not ooze projection, but the southpaw can reach back for 95 mph when he needs it and cruises at...
