Rob Manfred took the nothing-to-see-here approach when addressing being cursed out by Bryce Harper during a recent visit to the Phillies locker room.

Manfred has already said he anticipates another lockout.

When asked about the confrontation with Harper during a visit to Wrigley Field, though, Manfred downplayed the issue with four simple words: "Not all that significant," Manfred said, per Rogers.
