Bryce Harper is stoked for 2015 campaign

We all know Bryce Harper is bold and brash, as deadly with his words as he is with the bat when he's on one of his hot streaks at the plate.

That's not exactly news.

But Harper can also be incredibly reflective and thoughtful, as this morning's pre-opening day post on his Instagram account proves.

Think the 22-year-old isn't stoked for the start of another season? Think he doesn't experience the same unbridled joy at the thought of another season beginning as the fans that will jam Nationals Park today?

Think again.

What did Harper have to say? Glad you asked - and happy to provide you access to the Nationals outfielder's thoughts heading into his fourth major league campaign.

Happy new year, NatsTown!

And we're back ya'll! Opening day 2015 is here..Can't wait to see all the fans and people out at the yard today! So blessed to be able to wake up and play this wonderful game every single day..The crack of the bat, the smell of the leather, the green grass, the smell of popcorn in the air, and just 45,000 people going crazy for a Nationals win! It's simple, there is nothing better! #2015Nats #RingChasin #DontBeScared
