Progressive Field is getting ready for the 2019 MLB All-Star Game on Tuesday night, but there's an embarrassing mistake in banners promoting the game.

Bryce Harper is heavily featured across the display, but he didn't make the cut for this year's All-Star Game in Cleveland.

Since his debut in 2012, Harper has taken part in every All-Star game except in 2014 when he was injured.

He didn't earn enough fan votes to be selected this season, and the players didn't vote him in as a reserve. Instead, J.T. Realmuto was voted to represent the Phillies in Cleveland.

After signing a $330 million contract with the Philadelphia Phillies this offseason, Harper's performance has been underwhelming.

He's hitting .253 with 105 strikeouts at the All-Star break. He's hit 16 home runs and 62 RBIs, but his OPS is down from .889 last season to .839.

The Phillies dropped into third place behind the Atlanta Braves and Washington Nationals after going 11-16 in June and will need Harper to help out on offense if they attempt a postseason run.

While Harper won't be in Cleveland in person, he'll certainly be hard to miss.

Oh look a dumb post about the phillies.  didn't see that coming here.  they were going to the world series each of the last two junes haha

Basing Harper's performance on RBIs, batting average....is not smart.   the same people who love ryan howard are the ones ripping harper for not making the all star team (breaking news -- ryan howard made 2 all star teams in his career and he really only deserved one because he wasnt good).

harper has been good this year (8 years in mlb, hes already had his fifth best season in terms of WAR -- with 40% of the season still to go.  so if people don't think he's doing well then they really have no idea what he did in the last 7 years - not surprising w phillies fans).   his contract isnt great but for an awful franchise it was a necessary overpay in years.  He's a great player.  an all time player. the phillies got him at a price per year discount.  He's going to be here for over a decade and that's a good thing.

this franchise is a complete abomination.  The fact that they didn't sign machado because of a fucking newspaper fan poll is hilarious.  the fans didn't want machado because he didn't run out a routine ground ball was really a thing - because philly fans are really dumb as fuck.  no, we don't want one of the ten best players in MLB, who is in his prime, and plays a third base where we have a fat turd who cant have an OBP higher than his weight.  it's all just so stupid and deserving.  they had plenty of money to sign both and they chose jean segura and andrew mccutchen over machado.  haha

andy macphail traded cole hamels in his prime for a pile of shit (nick williams, mark appel, jorge alfaro, jarred eickoff, and 9 other players who suck my balls).  they cannot draft to save their life.  they pretend to be a big market but rarely spend big money on the international draft  -- and when they do they waste $3 on Jhailyn Ortiz, who hits as well as Dave Matthews sings.  they also signed two korean pitchers a few years ago and wasted $3 million - not surprisingly -  those guys never showed up in the majors.  The guy that signed those pitchers is probably the same guy trying to produce the next pearl jam album, which we all know is going to suck.  I'm hoping it never happens since I saw the beyonce xmas single and heard ole and cant deny me.  yikes.

mickey moniak the pick before nick senzel.  adam haseley the pick before keston hiura.  the turd they drafted this year before corbin carroll.  the failure to develop ANY semblance of pitching forever (hamels, nola, and nothing).  

JP crawford is better than fat boy segura.  the left side of the infield weighs more than the eagles starting defensive ends.  and why this team loves caesar hernandez is beyond me - he sucks.  I call him latin marlon anderson

I know they've been around longer than most, but there are an infinite number of reasons why this is the worst franchise in sports history.  They're a complete embarrassment.  Fire MacPhail.  I actually like Klentak and Kapler.  I hope this team loses until MacPhail gets canned -- until then nothing changes.  Klentak could be a good GM - MacPhail hired him to be his puppet and that's what has happened (minus the hiring of the new farm/development director, long overdue, which I bet Klentak was behind).

Anyone who thought this team had a chance to go anywhere is more dumb than the fans who believed in chip kelly.  aka all of philadelphia, the dumbest sports city in the country (but we're passionate).  

seriously, this franchise decided on two all time players in their prime with a newspaper poll.  how can you root for that kind of stupidity??????

You emerge from wherever it is you dwell to say THIS? You're talking like he's Trout or something. 

But hey, I hope you’re right. I don’t wanna be logging in here five years from now saying I told you so because he sucks and we still have 7 years left of him. I want to log in five years from now and praise NL MVP Bryce Harper for leading the Phillies to a pennant. That'd be nice. But it's no given.

i love how he thinks Harper is an all-time player after 7 years in the majors and hated Ryan Howard yet Howard's 1st 7 years were better than Harpers have been so far.

My favorite Fixer post was a few years ago in the Big Five thread. He ridiculed Villanova's lack of success in March. Of course Nova would go on to win their first of two out of three national championships a few weeks later.....and Mr Fixer has yet to make an appearance in that thread since.

There was a funny exchange between McCarthy and Kruk before the game.

McCarthy: Last time the Phils took on the Dodgers, it was considered a litmus test of where the team stood. Well, they got swept.

Kruk: Tom, I don't know what "litmus" means but I know all about getting swept by the Dodgers.
