As a Nats and Harper fan I think Rosario should have won if not a close second.

Harper winning is good for the hobby
at least through spring training or MLB opening day. Looking at the previous NL ROY's back to 1980, I think only two players have any overall hobby love -- Pujols and Piazza. The rest are who cares (jason jennings, chris sabo, dontrelle willis types) or only get love from their fans or fans from their clubs (posey, howard, braun types).
EDIT: That's why ROY is meaningless to me - players at least back to 1980 have had a good rookie campaign but usually don't amount to much let alone a HOF career. I bet Harper autos will be $30-50 in a few years since you don't get overall hobby love to drive prices but rather just competition from harper collectors and nats collectors.

If Wade was 19 years old he probably would have won ROY.

Only won by 7 votes? They all can't be as great as Mike Trout I suppose.

This helped A LOT. Harpers best month was September which happened to be Miley/Frazier worst month. Makes a big difference.

Agree, the fact he wasn't even in the final three was pretty sad.
yes, "Who Farted?"'s RC's will only bring less than half what they do now in 5-10 years (i.e. $1,000+ current autos numbered more than 25 copies will be less than $500 and ones at the $200-300 level probably will be under $100.). Harper will be struck with the ROY curse and be more like Scott Williamson or Chris Sabo or Jason Jennings than he is Albert Pujols, Ryan Howard or Ryan Braun.

Harper certinly has the tools, talent, and power to become a 'super star'.
However we all know it is not always a simple path even with the best 'stuff', but I do wish him well and hope for the best!

Well if previous ROY winners tell us anything, it's that he definitely has a good shot. Over the past several years the only ROY winners who didn't become a star player are: Coghlan, Soto(had a couple good seasons), and Crosby.
