Dustin Harris

25-Year-Old OutfielderOF
Texas Rangers AAA
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Harris made his MLB debut in 2024, appearing as the DH in the final two games of a disappointing season for the Rangers. He has a wealth of experience at the Triple-A level (198 games) the last two seasons and appears ready to challenge for a spot on the major-league roster this spring. He entered professional baseball as a first baseman and has since added third base and left field to his resume. The Rangers feel he can work as an infielder or outfielder, which suggests the club envisions a backup role for Harris. With a mastery of the strike zone, Harris should get on base enough to utilize his sneaky speed for a corner infielder/outfielder. The 25-year-old recorded double-digit steals the last four years in the minors, including 35 for Triple-A Round Rock in 2024. The Rangers' addition of Joc Pederson and Jake Burger puts a premium on Harris' ability to be a utility player in competition with Ezequiel Duran and Josh Smith. Read Past Outlooks

Optioned to Round Rock
OFTexas Rangers  AAA
March 21, 2025
The Rangers optioned Harris to Triple-A Round Rock on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Harris made two appearances for the Rangers late last season and entered camp in the race for a spot on Texas' bench, but he'll fall short and return to Triple-A for the start of 2025. The 25-year-old has experience at the corner infield spots as well as in the outfield, which gives a boost to his chances of returning to Texas at some point this year.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
There was no way Harris was going to replicate his video-game numbers from the lower levels in his first taste of Double-A, but his .279 BABIP made sure it was a steep decline. Even so, a .257/.346/.471 slash line with a 19.4 K%, 11.0 BB% and 29.1 GB% is pretty good for a pro hitter's worst season to date. He will still chase some pitches out of the zone, but his 77.4 Contact% was pretty solid. Harris doesn't deliver elite exit velocities, but his pull-and-lift approach and ability to manipulate the barrel should allow him to hit 20-plus home runs with a solid OBP at peak. He is pretty athletic for a player who split time between left field and first base last season, and it's possible he chips in double-digit steals early in his career. A wrist injury suffered in early-August didn't require surgery but it cost him the rest of the season. Left field is wide open on the organizational depth chart, and the lefty-hitting Harris has a chance to make his big-league debut in his age-23/24 season.
Anthony Volpe was the breakout prospect of the year, but Harris was the pop-up prospect of the year, as he was an 11th-round pick by Oakland in 2019 and had never been ranked on the top 400 prospect rankings prior to 2021. The Athletics traded him along with Marcus Smith for a month of Mike Minor at the 2020 trade deadline, and Harris is now the Rangers' second-best hitting prospect behind Josh Jung. The physically imposing corner infielder hit .327/.401/.542 with 20 home runs, 25 steals, a 10.1 BB% and a 15.7 K% in 110 games split between Low-A and High-A. Harris doesn't have an elite eye at the plate, as he will chase over a quarter of the time and doesn't swing at as many grooved pitches as he should, but he is absolutely elite from a bat-to-ball standpoint, and perhaps more notably, getting the barrel to the ball. Similarly, his exit velocities aren't elite, but his barrel rate is, which is why he comfortably projects for plus power. Despite the fact that he was 25-for-27 on the bases and is a good athlete for a likely first baseman, Harris's primary dynasty appeal is tied to his future contributions in the other four standard roto categories. He played some third base last season but is more likely to get starts at designated hitter than third base in the majors. Harris turns 23 in July, so he will need to produce at Double-A to retain his dynasty value, but his hit tool and game power should allow him to have success.

High-stakes trade chip?
OFTexas Rangers  AAA
July 20, 2023
Harris could be included as part of a package for Shohei Ohtani, speculates Jim Bowden of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
The likelihood of a Rangers-Ohtani blockbuster is debatable, but Texas has the assets to take a swing. Harris is mashing in Triple-A, owning a .308/.451/.523 slash through 19 games. He is regarded as one of the Rangers' top outfield prospects and is a likely bet to debut in the majors at some point within the next year.
