"Dustin Harris was nabbed off waivers from the White Sox on Saturday. The 26-year-old appeared in six games with Chicago, getting on base at a hefty .438 clip and chipping in two steals to open the season."
"Harris hasn't had an extended chance to flash the power/speed combo he showed in the minors, where he put together a 20/25 season between Single-A and High-A in 2021."
"Harris would seem to be a replacement for Joey Loperfido, who is expected to land on the IL due to a quad injury."
"Loperfido has spent time at all three outfield spots, with the majority of his work coming in left field, slashing .259/.333/.345 across 66 plate appearances."
Dustin Harris, a 26-year-old outfielder, was claimed off waivers from the White Sox and is expected to join the Astros soon. He had a strong start with a .438 on-base percentage and two steals in six games. Harris was previously squeezed off the White Sox roster after the call-up of Sam Antonacci. He has a history of speed, stealing over 30 bases in the minors for three consecutive years. His addition comes as Joey Loperfido is expected to go on the IL due to a quad injury.
