WASHINGTON -- Doug Harris is one of the hardest-working executives in baseball. As the Nationals' assistant general manager and vice president of player development, Harris is one of the reasons players such as Bryce Harper and Anthony Rendon developed quickly in the Minors and became stars in the big leagues.
Although he works hard at developing players, it's not lost on Harris that Thanksgiving means spending time with his wife, Lisa, and three daughters. As they always do, the Harris family planned a special day at his parents' house in Pennsylvania. With exception of exchanging gifts, it has that Christmas atmosphere at Ron and Tish Harris' house.
