Michael Harris II News
The Atlanta Braves selected the contract of outfielder Michael Harris from the minor leagues on Saturday after optioning outfielder Travis Demeritte to Triple-A Gwinnett. Harris, the team's top prospect per MLB Pipeline, got off to a great start at Double-A Mississippi this year and was hitting .305/.372/.506 with an .878 OPS, five home runs, 16 doubles, 33 RBI, 33 runs scored and 11 stolen bases in 196 plate appearances over 43 games before his call-up. The 21-year-old has never played above Double-A, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect too much initially. But Harris will have a chance to play regularly in his first taste of major league action. The left-handed hitter makes a lot of hard contact, but he has a tendency to go outside the strike zone at times.
Atlanta Braves outfield prospect Michael Harris has played in just 53 minor league games since graduating high school in 2019, but the 20-year-old has made an impression on manager Brian Snitker in camp. Harris hit his first homer off Rays hard-throwing right-hander Pete Fairbanks on Thursday, making him 3-for-7 through seven games. Ranked as the team's No. 12 prospect by MLB Pipeline, Harris could see his stock rise even more in the near future. "He's a special player," Snitker said. "We just got to get him a Minor League season to start, where we can get him out there playing every day." The Braves are excited to see what the left-handed hitter can do in his first full season of pro ball this year, but he's probably at least a few years away from realistically making his major league debut.
