Scouting Report: Dustin Harris
Chicago White Sox | LF
Overall
Summary
Dustin Harris, 26-year-old outfielder, was designated for assignment by the Houston Astros after a brief stint where he appeared in 11 games with a .226/.286/.290 slash line. He cleared waivers, elected free agency, and subsequently signed a minor league deal with the Chicago White Sox to play at Triple-A Charlotte. Harris has struggled to produce offensively in the majors (.225/.307/.371 career line in 102 PA across three seasons) despite being considered a prospect with strong contact skills. He is known as a speed-and-defense player who steals bases effectively but lacks offensive production. The White Sox previously designated him for assignment before he was claimed by Houston, and now he returns to the organization on a minor league contract.
Strengths
- Strong contact skills with low strikeout rate (13.5% with Astros, 20.4% career at Triple-A)
- Effective base stealer (4 SB in 11 games with Astros)
