With Spring Training set to start in late February, each team is filled with hope for a run at a World Series title and fresh faces are ready to make a name for themselves in the majors. After a historic season in 2023, the Atlanta Braves’ season fizzled out with a loss to division-rival Philadelphia Phillies in the first round of the playoffs. They will look to put that behind them this season.
Here are three rising stars who will look to make an impact for the Braves in 2024.
Michael Harris II, outfielder
2023 MLB stats: .293/.331/.477, 18 home runs, 57 RBI and 20 stolen bases in 138 games played
The 2022 National League Rookie of the Year award winner, 22-year-old outfielder Michael Harris II is still one of the most underrated players in baseball and is primed to become a household name in 2024.
Batting primarily out of the ninth spot in the Braves’ loaded lineup, Harris II still put up another stellar year with the bat while playing Gold Glove-caliber defense in center field.
