Philadelphia Phillies MVP Bryce Harper has been cleared to play less than six months after undergoing Tommy John surgery, ESPN's Jeff Passan reports.
Harper, 30, had the operation on his right elbow on Nov. 23 after playing most of the 2022 season with a torn ullnar collateral ligament which limited his ability to play the field.
In 398 plate appearances as a designated hitter last season, Harper hit .296/.368/.522 with 17 home runs. He was an All-Star and created MVP of the National League Championship Series. The Phillies original timetable for Haper's return was around the All-Star break, which falls on July 11. Passan reports Harper will be in the line-up as designated hitter on Tuesday against the Dodgers.
Harper posted a picture to Instagram of himself in full uniform with the caption "Aye Pham. You ready?" signaling that his return - while not yet confirmed by the team - may be close.
