It’s happening, the Atlanta Braves have called up prospect Michael Harris II
Count me as one who was totally wrong about the plans of the major league club (trust me, it happens often). Prospect outfielder Michael Harris II is headed to Atlanta, where he’ll wear no. 23 for the big league team after putting together an amazing performance in Double-A. The surprising promotion (for some of us)…

Gwinnett wins fourth in a row, while Michael Harris does it all in M-Braves victory
It seems like its been awhile, but on Saturday the Braves won its second series of the month, beating the Marlins 4-3 thanks to a pair of home runs from William Contreras and a solid five-inning start by righty Kyle Wright. It’s pretty crazy, Contreras has played in just 10 games this season… but already…

Could this be Michael Harris’ last week in Double-A?
Perhaps the most popular storyline within the Atlanta Braves minor league system so far this season has been one that we probably all saw coming. Either way, though, it has to be the amazing play of prospect outfielder Michael Harris II. Coming into the campaign as a bonafide top-tier prospect in the organization, the 21-year-old…

3 things we’ve learned about the Braves farm system so far this season
Although it may seem like it, one month is not enough time to determine much of anything in baseball. April wasn’t even technically a full month for the Braves minor league system, as the Triple-A level didn’t open its 2022 season until roughly the fifth day of the month, and the other three classifications didn’t…

Michael Harris II homers twice in M-Braves comeback win
Given I just put out a monthly report on Sunday, I figured a daily recap would be more appropriate today. Pretty much anything notable from the last week will most likely be included in my monthly column, so if you’re interested in checking out the Braves top performers for the month of April, be sure…

Hit streak ends at ten for Michael Harris II; Royber Salinas continues to pace the system in strikeouts
The Braves leave LA and enter its day off on Thursday having lost two of three against the Dodgers. However, with 14-straight games to start the 2022 season, just getting here with everyone still intact is probably just as important as the team’s record at the moment. Meanwhile, down on the Braves farm last night,…

Jared Shuster and Tanner Gordon rack up K’s, while Michael Harris just keeps hitting
Hey! Two wins a row for the big league Braves, and all of a sudden we all feel much better about the 2022 season. It was so nice to see Ian Anderson back to his usual self on Saturday, as the righty pitched a two-hitter in 5 2/3 and struck out seven, leading Atlanta to…

Mississippi’s Michael Harris nearly hits for cycle, while Rome’s offense breaks out
It was another great night for minor league baseball on Wednesday night. At the last minute yesterday evening I decided to head over to Toyota Field to watch the Rocket City Trash Pandas (Angels Double-A affiliate) take on the Pensacola Wahoos, hoping they could at least get most of the game in before the storms…
