Michael Harris II DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Atlanta Braves outfielder Michael Harris II came up clutch for his team during Saturday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. Harris started out the game by singling and stealing a base. He was quiet the rest of the game until he blasted a two-run home run in the ninth inning off right-hander Cole Sulser. Harris has been off to a slow start this season, but he helped give his team the win on Saturday. Fantasy managers should keep holding him as Harris has all the potential to be a stud in fantasy baseball.

Atlanta Braves outfielder Michael Harris II is retreating to the bench on Wednesday versus the Los Angeles Dodgers at Dodger Stadium with a left-hander on the mound. Eli White will make the start in center field and will bat ninth for the Braves against southpaw Blake Snell. It will be Harris' first day off of the season after starting the first six games (all losses) and going just 3-for-23 with one home run, an RBI, a run scored, no walks and eight strikeouts. The 24-year-old could be pressing at the plate early on given the team's rough start to the year, but hopefully he can pick things up this weekend against the division-rival Miami Marlins in Atlanta after another day off on Thursday. White is hitless in just one career at-bat against Snell and should be avoided in DFS lineups in the series finale against Snell and the undefeated Dodgers.

Atlanta Braves outfielder Michael Harris II smacked three hits and stole a base on Sunday, doing his best to lead the Braves in a crucial 4-2 loss to the Kansas City Royals. Harris certainly did his part, cracking three singles out of the leadoff spot. Unfortunately, the rest of the offense had trouble getting anything going and Harris failed to record any runs or RBI. The 23-year-old is heating up at the right time, as he had a .317/.343/.614 line with eight homers in September coming into this game. He will look to set the table for the Braves again on Monday and send them to the postseason. The hot finish to the season should remind fantasy managers of why they were willing to spend a third-round pick on Harris before the season. He will likely go for a discount next year, and savvy managers should buy the dip.
