Easy. Harper. He has a longer track record.
Exactly the point. A longer track record of disappointment.

It depends on what your expectations were. If you believed the hype about the next Mickey Mantle etc then that’s on you.

This. Harper is a 3-4 WAR player.  That's really good, borderline all-star, but so far below Soto's potential and so far below Harper's hype.
