The Braves’ centerfielder had a great day in Spring Training, while their left fielder appears likely to play Opening Day. This is reassuring on both counts. Michael Harris still seems to have that offensive potential that he hasn’t quite put together for a full season to combine with his elite defense at a premium position, launching him into true stardom. Meanwhile, Profar’s seemingly minor injury is good news after a pretty scary looking injury on that diving play in the outfield. The Braves could really use for both of these players to start the season well as we wait for Ronald Acuna to return to the lineup.
