But, despite this, the Bra...2025

"Michael Harris II has had injuries the last two seasons."

2024
"Duvall then led off the fourth with a homer, his first of the year, and Michael Harris II followed with a ringing grounder double to right center."

2023
"com/rQ8KOv0Sa6— Gaurav (@gvedak) February 25, 2023 When it came to other performances, Michael Harris II and Vaughn Grissom both picked up their first hits of spring training, so here's hoping that they'll continue to rack up the hits as the regular season gets closer and closer."

2022
"Here’s why: The Braves have signed OF Michael Harris to an eight-year, $72 million contract that runs through the 2030 season."

2015
"Offensive lines are able to jell over the course of a full year, but there's only so much a group consisting of Clemmings, Matt Kalil, Brandon Fusco, Joe Berger and Michael Harris can be reasonably expected to do."

2014
"On the right side, Phil Loadholt is out for the season with a torn pectoral muscle, per Aaron Wilson of National Football Post, so Michael Harris has been filling in."
