Braves: Michael Harris' 2024 hype gets boost after claim from MLB Coach Of The Year winner

The Atlanta Braves keep on producing the best homegrown talent in the MLB, and the 2022 NL Rookie of the Year awardee, Michael Harris II, is another testament to how elite the team's player development staff is. Harris did not waste much time in cementing himself as a bonafide big leaguer, putting up 4.9 WAR in his debut season while following that up with a strong sophomore campaign, avoiding the slump second year players tend to encounter.

Now, only 23 years old, big things are in store for Harris as he has already accomplished plenty in his career despite his young age.
