Bryce Harper's salary cap dust up with Rob Manfred takes an even darker turn

Philadelphia Phillies star first baseman Bryce Harper has seemingly put his interaction with MLB commissioner Rob Manfred to bed at least for now. It was a big story across Major League Baseball that caught the attention of millions including MLB Network analyst Mark DeRosa.

DeRosa, a 16-year MLB veteran, now works for Manfred and is an MLB Network analyst. He also recently managed Team USA in the World Baseball Classic. DeRosa has been around the game of baseball and its players for a long time. He's very familiar with it all, but he reportedly made a comment regarding the Manfred-Phillies interaction that was jarring to hear.
