Braves rookie outfielder Michael Harris reaches 8-year, $72 million extension

The Atlanta Braves have locked down Michael Harris II.

The Braves reached an eight-year, $72 million extension with their outfielder on Tuesday night, which will keep the 21-year-old with the organization through the 2030 season.

The deal also includes a $15 million team option in 2031 and a $20 million team option in 2032.

Harris was called up to the Braves in late May, and was widely considered their top prospect heading into the season. He’s hit .287 with 12 home runs and 39 RBI in 71 games with Atlanta.
