"Harris will return to Boston for a second consecutive season. The 32-year-old righty spent this season in the Sox organization. Harris signed a minor league deal with the Mets last November. The Red Sox selected him in the Triple-A phase of the Rule 5 draft less than a month later. Harris missed a couple weeks early on with shoulder inflammation. He has been healthy since June and turned in 39 innings of 4.15 ERA ball at Triple-A Worcester."
"A former Yankees draftee, Harris pitched in the big leagues with the Nationals two seasons ago. He made 16 appearances and allowed 12 runs (11 earned) across 19 1/3 innings. The Pittsburgh product only recorded nine strikeouts in his big league stint but has fanned a reasonable 24% of opponents over parts of five Triple-A seasons. Harris uses a three-pitch mix led by his mid-80s splitter. His four-seam fastball sits around 95 MPH and he throws an upper-80s cutter as his breaking pitch."
Hobie Harris agreed to a minor league contract with the Red Sox for 2026 and will attend Spring Training as a non-roster invitee. The 32-year-old right-hander spent the 2025 season in the Sox organization after signing with the Mets and being selected by Boston in the Triple-A phase of the Rule 5 draft. He missed time early with shoulder inflammation but posted 39 innings with a 4.15 ERA at Triple-A Worcester, striking out 25% of batters while issuing above-average walks and home runs. Harris has prior big-league experience with the Nationals and throws a mid-80s splitter, mid-90s four-seam, and an upper-80s cutter.
