Newsbreakers

September 16, 2009

Willie Harris went 1-for-3 with an RBI and a stolen base out of the leadoff spot on Wednesday night, but that would be just about all the offensive production the Nationals could muster in a 6-1 loss to the Phillies.

Our View:

Harris also drew two walks. While batting just .231 on the season, he has on-base percentage that is above .370. Still, he is obviously not an option in almost every format.

September 8, 2009

Willie Harris went 2-for-3 with a home run on Tuesday night, while also getting hit by two pitches, but it wasn't enough, as Washington lost 5-3 to the Phillies at home.

Our View:

Harris has now homered in consecutive contests, but is still hitting just .230 on the season.

June 28, 2009

Willie Harris had a nice afternoon at the plate for the Nationals in their 5-3 win over the Orioles. Harris went 3-for-4 with a double, a home run, a run scored, and an RBI in the game.

Our View:

Harris has had a very nice last couple of weeks, and he has pulled his average up to a respectable .248. After a very slow start to the season, it is starting to look like he could contribute in a fantasy setting. There are better options out there, but he could be worth a look if you are desperate in NL-only leagues.

June 20, 2009

Willie Harris pounded a walk-off two-run homer in the 12th inning on Saturday to give the Nationals a 5-3 win over the Blue Jays. Harris was 2-for-4 with a homer, a double, two RBI, and two runs scored in the game.

Our View:

Harris was the unlikely hero tonight, but the Nats will take it from whoever they can get it from. Harris has no fantasy value as he is hitting only .228, but still a nice performance tonight.

June 6, 2009

According to the Washington Post, Willie Harris will play center field and hit sixth against the Mets on Saturday.

Our View:

Austin Kearns gets the night off to make room for Harris, who is hitting .269 with a homer and nine RBI this season. He doesn't play enough to merit any legitimate fantasy consideration.

April 28, 2009

Willie Harris has been activated from the DL following his recovery from a pulled left oblique, according to TSN. The Nationals sent Justin Maxwell to the minors as the adjoining move.

Our View:

The 30-year-old vet is a career .248 hitter, and does not hold much fantasy value as a reserve infielder.

April 27, 2009

MLB.com reports that the Nationals will activate Willie Harris from the DL following Monday's game. He will serve as an extra outfielder for Washington. Manager Manny Acta hinted that Justin Maxwell will likely head back to Triple-A.

Our View:

Harris holds no fantasy value as a reserve in Washington.

April 21, 2009

MASN reports that Willie Harris went to Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday to begin his rehab assignment. He was placed on the DL on April 13 with a left oblique strain.

Our View:

Harris is a reserve for the Nationals and holds no fantasy value.

April 13, 2009

According to TSN, the Washington Nationals have placed second baseman Willie Harris on the 15- day DL with a left oblique strain.

Our View:

Anderson Hernandez was removed from the DL and will start today at second with Harris and Ronnie Belliard both injured.

April 12, 2009

Willie Harris exited Sunday's game against Atlanta in the third inning with a leg injury, according to the Sports Network.

Our View:

Harris is considered day-to-day with a strained oblique.
