Braves' Michael Harris: Swats homer No. 10
Rotowire
Harris went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's loss to the Brewers.
The center fielder took Trevor Megill deep in the ninth inning to make things close, but Atlanta couldn't find a tying run in a 5-4 loss. Harris has hit safely in 12 of the last 14 games, slashing .397/.417/.724 over that span with three of his 10 homers on the season, along with four doubles, three triples, five RBI and 10 runs.
Harris went 2-for-4 with a double in Sunday's loss to the Rangers.
Atlanta managed only four hits in total, giving Harris little help in turning his knocks into run production. The center fielder has a five-game hit streak going in which he's batting .579 (11-for-19) with two doubles, two triples and two homers, but he'll need a much longer heater to climb out of his early season hole -- Harris' .618 OPS on the year is still over 100 points lower than his .722 mark from 2024.
Braves' Michael Harris: Finishes single short of cycle
Rotowire
Harris went 4-for-4 with a home run, two triples, a double, three total runs and two total RBI in Saturday's extra-inning loss to the Rangers.
Harris was the catalyst of Atlanta's offense in the loss, logging half of the team's eight hits. All of those knocks went for extra bases, and when he came up to the plate in the top of the ninth inning needing a single for a cycle, he instead laced a triple to left field and subsequently scored a run to temporarily give Atlanta a lead. Harris has struggled for the majority of the season, but he finally appears to be heating up. The outfielder has reached base in 10 of his past 11 games, batting .390 (16-for-41) with three homers, three doubles, nine runs and six RBI during that span.

Braves' Michael Harris: Continues to heat up Friday
Rotowire
Harris went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and an additional run scored in Friday's 8-3 loss to Texas.
While Harris has been a huge disappointment from a fantasy perspective -- he has a .574 OPS in 2025 -- he's finally starting to come around a bit at the plate recently. The speedy outfielder is hitting .324 over his last 37 at-bats, adding two doubles, two homers and four RBI during this 10-game stretch. Harris' defense should help him maintain nearly an everyday role in center field, but he still likely has plenty of work to do for any chance of moving up Atlanta's batting order.
Harris went 2-for-4 in Tuesday's loss to the Giants.
Both hits were singles, but it still continues an encouraging stretch for Harris that has seen him hit safely in seven of the last eight games while batting .300 (9-for-30) with two doubles and a homer. The 24-year-old has had a miserable start to the season at the plate, with his .559 OPS representing a huge drop from the .722 OPS he posted in 2024 over 110 regular-season games as well as being the worst mark in the majors this year, but per David O'Brien of The Athletic, Harris has been working on mechanical changes with his swing that might finally be paying dividends.
