AUGUST 25 • MLB.COM

Contract selected by San Diego The Padres selected Harris' contract from Triple-A El Paso on Monday.

Impact Harris inked a minor-league contract with the Padres before the All-Star break after being granted his release from the White Sox in early July. He has a 1.039 OPS with 10 steals, six homers and 26 RBI over 135 plate appearances with El Paso this season, and the move bolsters a Padres outfield that is without Ramon Laureano (hip), Samad Taylor (oblique) and Miguel Andujar (wrist). In corresponding moves, Sung-Mun Song was optioned to Triple-A and Lucas Giolito (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day injured list.

AUGUST 24 • ROTOWIRE

Signs on with San Diego Harris signed a minor-league contract with the Padres on Wednesday.

Impact Harris, who elected free agency earlier in the month after opting out of a minor-league deal with the White Sox, will report to Triple-A El Paso. He's appeared in 17 big-league games this season across stops in Chicago and Houston, hitting .233 with five RBI, four stolen bases and six runs scored.

JULY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Opts out of deal Harris opted out of his minor-league contract with the White Sox on Thursday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

Impact Rather than adding him to the major-league roster, Chicago granted Harris his release. The 26-year-old was DFA'd by Chicago in April and subsequently claimed off waivers by the Astros before being designated for assignment by Houston less than a month later. He quickly re-signed with the White Sox on a minor-league deal in May and slashed .312/.396/.490 with six homers, 26 RBI, 32 runs scored, nine stolen bases and a 19:35 BB:K across 183 trips to the plate with Triple-A Charlotte. Harris will now look for an opportunity elsewhere.

JULY 3 • ROTOWIRE

Back with ChiSox on MiLB deal The White Sox signed Harris to a minor-league contract Monday, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports.

Impact It's a return to the organization Harris started with this season before he went from the White Sox to the Astros via waivers last month. In 17 games this season between both stops, Harris has slashed .233/.333/.302 with no home runs, four stolen bases and a 6:7 BB:K. He will report to Triple-A Charlotte.

MAY 11 • ROTOWIRE

Reaches free agency Harris elected to become a free agent Friday.

Impact Harris had been removed from the Astros' 40-man roster. He passed through waivers unclaimed, but the outfielder will seek employment in a new organization rather than accept an outright assignment.
