The Bryce Harper free-agency saga has now continued into the second week of February, but Chris Russell of 106.7 The Fan in Washington D.C. says Harper could make his decision by Thursday.
Decision week for Bryce in Vegas....This could be over by Thursday (Valentine's Day). Heard no more meetings. 3-4 teams are serious contenders. I assume that still includes #Nats but not 100% sure. Heard a week or so ago, they would get final chance to match. pic.twitter.com/r2gHhClqXU

Harper, according to Russell, is deciding between three to four teams. The Phillies, Giants, and Nationals are presumably among those teams, according to various reports.

Not only do the Phillies appear to be the team willing to pay Harper the most money, they have also made some notable additions to their team this offseason. Last week the team traded two of their top prospects for catcher J.T. Realmuto, a player Harper is believed to be very close with.
Here's to hoping this thing ends this week.
