Switching teams has reignited interest in Harper merchandise. His No. 34 jersey with the Washington Nationals was the 13th-best selling jersey in MLB last season, per MLB.com's Daniel Kramer.
Philadelphia sports fans often get a bad rap, but they are also a group that will passionately support their players as much as any city does.
Harper's massive jersey sales is the latest evidence that Philadelphia fans will get behind the 2015 National League MVP as soon as he steps on the diamond for the Phillies.
