Dustin Harris

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
