Sukhyum Harris
Starting Pitcher | Port Hope Battery
Pitching His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. The Port Hope Battery hope he can work on his control a little bit. Every once and a while one slips away from him and either ends up at the backstop or in the right field bleachers. He attacks lefties and righties the same way.
Defense & Hitting He's reasonably quick to the plate but needs to vary his pickoff moves. Good baserunners appeared to time him last year. He tends to fall off slightly to the first-base side of the mound, making him vulnerable to bunts toward third base. He makes up for that minor flaw by being aggressive in fielding his position. Harris is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Harris has some pop in his swing.
2025 Outlook If Harris doesn't perform, the Port Hope Battery won't hesitate to send him down to the minors. I just don't know if The Port Hope Battery are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
