Prime Mike Trout perhaps?

Pretty lofty goal. Love if he was prime Trout. But I think k that’s an overreach.

Early Barry bonds is probably the best comp.

Which means he is nothing like Harper. Honestly I don’t know who he can be compared to. If he actually keeps his average in the .275 level or higher, walks 10% of the time and is a 30/30 guy along with GG defense I can’t think of a guy like him. 
Maybe Bobby Bonds? He hit 30+ homers, stole 30+ bases, hit around that .275 mark, walked a fair amount and won several GG. Seems to have had a similar game as PCA is showing. 

Honestly at this point, it's time to compare the kid to Mike Trout.  Maybe a shave less as a hitter, but on a different planet as a defensive player.  In the end, he could just be so unique that there is no comparison.

Best comparison is Bobby Bonds.

Pete is his own brand of great. I see a smidge of Carlson’s Beltran with kevin kiermaiers glove and you can toss in a few other players, which makes a ballpark 1:1 comparison impossible.
 

He’s 4th in war since August of 2024 at 12.6 with a 124 wRC+.
