star hasn’t played in a spring-training game since Thursday and likely won’t get into another until the latter part of the week because of lower back stiffness that came on late last week.
Harper, who has dealt with on-again, off-again back trouble for the past four seasons, said he “overdid it” with his daily baseball activities, including extra work at first base.“It’s Bobby fault,” Harper said, laughing. “He’s working me too hard.”and they agreed not to push it with spring training winding down. The Phillies play their final game next Monday before breaking camp and heading to Philadelphia.
“When I talked to Thomper, when I told him I was a little sore, he was like, ‘All right, we’ll just throw you down a little bit and pick you back up next week. We’ll see where you’re at,’” Harper said. “I said, ‘If it’s back field or big field, I’ll get my at-bats.’ ” Harper has gotten 22 at-bats in Grapefruit League games. He didn’t play at all in spring training last season — or go on a minor league assignment — before he made his regular-season debut on May 2 after Tommy John elbow surgery.
