Braves' Michael Harris II looks to show Angels' youngsters his skills

August 18 - Los Angeles Angels manager Ron Washington will spend the rest of the season looking at the youngsters, determining how they fit into the franchise's future.

Atlanta Braves manager Brian Snitker already knows he's got a great fit with 23-year-old Michael Harris II in his outfield. Harris likely will start Sunday when the Braves meet the Angels in the final contest of their three-game series in Anaheim, Calif.

The teams split the first two games, the Angels winning 3-2 on Friday and the Braves taking an 11-3 victory on Saturday.

Harris is in his third major league season, debuting in 2022 when he won the National League Rookie of the Year award and ranked 13th in the NL MVP voting.
