Going through a box of autographs that I had yet to catalog, and found a nice surprise: the 2022 National League Rookie of the Year.
…
Atlanta Braves outfielder Michael Harris II was the 2022 National League Rookie of the Year following a campaign where he had a 135 OPS+ with 19 HR in 414 at-bats. He did strike out 107 times to only 21 walks, but this is nothing that a 21-year-old can’t improve on with experience. He also plays centerfield and by all accounts a very good one, which means Atlanta will be more than happy to let him work on his offensive game this coming season, even if it means some short-term regression.
