Jul 3 Harris went 2-for-4 in Thursday's loss at Cincinnati. He also was caught stealing.

Recommendation: Harris is far from an offensive juggernaut, but he as contributed since June 1, batting .300 with two homers and five steals. In NL-only leagues, this isn't the worst guy to carry as a bench option.

Jun 27 INF Willie Harris started for the fourth straight game, the third at second base, on Friday night, but manager Manny Acta would not name the 30-year-old his starter over the underachieving Felipe Lopez and Ronnie Belliard. "We're just trying to put out there the best team on an everyday basis," Acta said. "He's been swinging the bat well and giving us a lot of energy, so we're just playing him. He's not our regular second baseman yet." Yahoo! Sports
