11:16pm: Minor league righty Ben Hansen will go back to the A’s in return, reports Andrew Parker of Sox Prospects.
11:14 pm: The Red Sox and Athletics are working on a trade that would send infielder Brett Harris to Boston, reports Chris Cotillo of MassLive. The A’s designated him for assignment over the weekend when they acquired reliever Hayden Juenger from the Blue Jays.
Harris changes teams for the first time in his career. The Gonzaga product was a seventh-round selection by the A’s in 2021. Harris doesn’t have huge physical tools, but he’s a capable defensive third baseman who has shown a patient approach in the minors. He got to the big leagues in 2024 and has been up and down from Triple-A Las Vegas over the past couple seasons.
A right-handed batter, Harris hasn’t done much at the plate at the big league level. He’s a career .194/.307/.289 hitter with three longballs in 73 games. Harris has a much stronger .291/.385/.465 batting line in nearly 900 Triple-A plate appearances across four seasons. Although the power is inflated by his playing in the Pacific Coast League, Harris rarely expands the strike zone and makes a solid amount of contact.
Harris is primarily a third baseman but can play any non-shortstop infield position. He has committed four errors in roughly 500 MLB innings at the hot corner, grading as a slightly above-average defender by Outs Above Average and Defensive Runs Saved. He’s in his final minor league option year and can be assigned to Triple-A Worcester for the remainder of the season.
