Michael Harris II In The Two-Hole Tuesday
1 year agoAtlanta Braves outfielder Michael Harris II is starting in center field and batting second again on Tuesday against right-hander Luis Severino and the visiting New York Yankees. Harris will get a boost in his fantasy value while hitting higher in Atlanta's lineup now that second baseman Ozzie Albies (hamstring) is on the injured list. After winning the National League Rookie of the Year award in 2022, Harris has followed it up by hitting .288 (95-for-330) with 11 home runs, 18 doubles, two triples, 36 RBI, 16 stolen bases and 52 runs scored in 361 plate appearances and 96 games. The 22-year-old missed some time in April due to injury, but he's stayed healthy since and is hitting a strong .373 (19-for-51) with two homers, three doubles, eight RBI, three steals and 14 runs in 14 starts in August. Keep him in your starting fantasy lineups.
