Monte Harrison: Pursuing football career
Harrison has ended his baseball career and will play college football in the fall, as he joined Arkansas' program as a walk-on in May, Kyle Bonagura of ESPN.com reports.
A standout high school receiver in Lee's Summit, Mo. from the Class of 2014, Harrison turned down a scholarship offer at Nebraska to sign with the Brewers, who drafted him in the second round of the 2014 First-Year Player Draft. Harrison was eventually traded to the Marlins in the January 2018 deal that sent Christian Yelich to Milwaukee, and the 29-year-old reached the majors for the first time in 2020 with Miami. He appeared in 50 games at the big-league level with the Marlins and Angels from 2020 through 2022, slashing just .176/.253/.294 over 76 plate appearances. Harrison rejoined the Milwaukee organization on a minor-league deal following the 2022 season, but he hit just .208 at Triple-A Nashville in 2023 before being released last September.

Brewers' Monte Harrison: Links on with Milwaukee
Harrison agreed Monday with the Brewers on a minor-league contract and received an invitation to MLB spring training, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
It's a return to the Brewers' organization for Harrison, as he was drafted by Milwaukee in the second round of the 2014 MLB Draft. The 27-year-old had a brief run in the majors last year with the Angels and had short big-league stints with the Marlins in 2020 and 2021, compiling a .176/.253/.294 slash line with a 48.7 percent strikeout rate in 76 MLB plate appearances. Harrison will likely be organizational depth for the Brew Crew, and the bulk of his playing time should come with Triple-A Nashville.

Angels' Monte Harrison: Clears waivers, sent to Salt Lake
Harrison cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Salt Lake on Monday.
After he was designated for assignment Wednesday, Harrison went unclaimed on waivers and will now report to Salt Lake. The outfielder has produced a .213 average with six home runs, 24 RBI, 29 runs and 20 stolen bases over 174 at-bats in 50 games with Triple-A this season. Harrison will remain a candidate for a call-up as the season goes on, but based on his .182 average in the majors this season, he carries little fantasy appeal.

Angels' Monte Harrison: Designated for assignment
Harrison was designated for assignment by the Angels on Wednesday.
Harrison had his contract selected by the Angels in late June and slashed .182/.357/.455 with a homer, five runs, three RBI and a stolen base over nine games with the major-league club. However, he'll be cast off the 40-man roster after Jo Adell was recalled Wednesday.

Angels' Monte Harrison: Blasts first homer of 2022
Harrison went 2-for-4 with a home run, three RBI and a strikeout during Sunday's 9-5 loss to the Orioles.
Harrison didn't appear in any of the Angels' last three games, but he was productive while batting ninth during Sunday's series finale against Baltimore. Since joining the major-league club, the 26-year-old has gone 2-for-10 with a homer, five runs, three RBI and a stolen base. He isn't a very appealing fantasy option since he's started in just four games since being called up by the Angels on June 24.

Angels' Monte Harrison: Joining big-league club
Harrison had his contract selected by the Angels on Friday.
Harrison joined the Halos on a minor-league deal in April and will now receive a look in the majors. The 26-year-old hit .213/.305/.368 with six home runs, 24 RBI and 20 stolen bases in 50 games for Triple-A Salt Lake this season, and he should serve as the Angels' No. 4 outfielder. Juan Lagares was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.

Angels' Monte Harrison: Joins Halos on MiLB deal
Harrison signed a minor-league contract with the Angels on Monday.
The 26-year-old was released by the Marlins in late March, but it didn't take long for him to latch on with a new team. Once a highly-regarded prospect, Harrison has mostly struggled in the upper minors and has only 41 big-league games under his belt. He hit .238/.328/.442 with 15 home runs, 52 RBI and 24 stolen bases in 74 games at the Triple-A level last season, and he'll remain at that level with the Angels to open 2022.

Monte Harrison: Released by Marlins
Harrison was released by the Marlins on Saturday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
Harrison was designated for assignment by Miami late last week, and he'll hit free agency ahead of the regular season. The 26-year-old spent most of the 2021 campaign at Triple-A Jacksonville and slashed .238/.328/.442 with 15 home runs, 52 RBI, 47 runs and 24 stolen bases across 74 appearances.

Marlins' Monte Harrison: Designated for assignment
Harrison was designated for assignment by the Marlins on Friday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
Harrison was a key piece of the Christian Yelich trade prior to the 2018 season but is now 26 years old and has yet to find success at the big-league level. In a small sample of 62 MLB plate appearances, Harrison's hit .175/.230/.263 with a 46.8 percent strikeout rate. While he still possesses raw power and speed, it's beginning to look like he won't ever make enough contact to carve out a role in the majors, as he also struck out 39.3 percent of the time at the Triple-A level last season.

Marlins' Monte Harrison: Sent down Wednesday
Harrison was optioned to Triple-A Jacksonville on Wednesday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
Harrison was recalled by the Marlins shortly before the All-Star break, and he went 1-for-5 with a double and two strikeouts across three appearances with the major-league club. Right-hander Nick Neidert was recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville in a corresponding move.

Marlins' Monte Harrison: Recalled by Marlins
Harrison was recalled by the Marlins on Sunday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
Harrison was briefly with the big-league club in early May, but he has spent the majority of his season with Triple-A Jacksonville. He's managed a .260/.324/.440 line at the level across 111 plate appearances, though he's striking out at a 37.8 percent clip. Harrison will serve as depth in the outfield while Adam Duvall (side ) remains unavailable.

Marlins' Monte Harrison: Heads back to minors
Harrison was optioned to Triple-A Jacksonville on Tuesday.
Harrison spent four days on the big-league roster, going 1-for-5. He'll head to the minors for regular at-bats with Brian Anderson returning from an oblique injury in a corresponding move.

Marlins' Monte Harrison: Joins active roster
Harrison was recalled by the Marlins on Friday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
Harrison is an interesting but flawed prospect, with significant contact issues holding back what would otherwise be a very exciting profile. He struck out in over half of his 51 plate appearances in his major-league debut last season, hitting just .170/.235/.255, but still managed to steal six bases. He'll likely fill a bench role during his time with the team.

Marlins' Monte Harrison: Packs bags for minors
The Marlins optioned Harrison to Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
In addition to Harrison, the Marlins also optioned another one of their top position prospects in first baseman Lewin Diaz to Jacksonville, where both he and Harrison will be able to play on an everyday basis. With Corey Dickerson, Starling Marte and Adam Duvall all seemingly locked in as at least large-side platoon players in the outfield, Harrison likely wouldn't have been in line to play more than two or three times per week had he made the Marlins' Opening Day roster.

Marlins' Monte Harrison: Steals base in win
Harrison went 1-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base Wednesday as the Marlins beat the Red Sox 8-4.
Harrison stole his fourth bag of the season Wednesday night but the young outfielder continues to struggle at the plate with a .146/.222/.244 slash line to go along with 24 strikeouts in 41 at-bats. He should be back on the bench Thursday assuming Starling Marte (undisclosed) is able to return to the lineup.

Marlins' Monte Harrison: Dons Golden Sombrero
Harrison went 0-for-5 with four strikeouts in Wednesday's 29-9 loss to the Braves.
In a game where quality pitching was difficult to come by for either side, Harrison somehow looked helpless at the plate, as he swung and missed eight times during the night. Harrison has now struck out four times twice already this season and at least three times on five occasions, leaving him with a bloated 56.4 K%. After Harrison, Steven Souza has the next-highest strikeout rate (48.4 percent) among all MLB players with at least 30 plate appearances this season.
