Michael Harris II Buries Mets With Go-Ahead Homer
4 months agoAtlanta Braves outfielder Michael Harris II had the breakout game he was yearning for during Wednesday's 7-5 win over the New York Mets. The 22-year-old went 3-for-4 with a two-run blast, an RBI double, and an additional run scored. Harris also sunk New York with his glove, making an acrobatic grab to rob Mark Canha of an extra-base hit late in this one. To say the 2022 NL Rookie of the Year has experienced a slow start would be an understatement; Harris has about been fantasy's biggest hitting bust thus far. The speedy outfielder direly needed a shot in the arm and his first three-hit attack of the year might provide that jolt. Harris has a mountain to climb to come anywhere close to paying off his pricey spring draft cost. Fantasy managers hope he'll continue to rebuild his still-abysmal .181/.261/.291 slash line with three long balls, 11 RBI, and five stolen bases across 127 at-bats.
