Michael Harris II Still Out on Sunday With Back Injury
Atlanta Braves outfielder Michael Harris II (back) remains out of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates, according to MLB.com. Mauricio Dubon will start in center field again and will bat in the two-hole for the series finale against Pirates left-handed opener Mason Montgomery at Truist Park. Harris is missing a second straight game after he was pulled from Friday's contest early due to back tightness. The 25-year-old's injury isn't considered serious, though, according to manager Walt Weiss, so he could be back in the team's starting lineup for the series opener against the Chicago White Sox on Tuesday after a scheduled day off on Monday. Harris has been a must-start when he's active for fantasy managers this year, as he's currently slashing .303/.338/.516 with an .853 OPS, 13 home runs, 37 RBI, 30 runs scored, and three stolen bases across his 61 games played in 2026. Dubon is mostly known for his glove work all over the diamond, but the 31-year-old veteran has been clutch in his first year in Atlanta and could be a sneaky DFS sleeper for Sunday's slate in the two-hole.
