Because Naval Academy students are required to serve five years in active duty once they begin classes their junior year, Harris is somewhat of an untouchable commodity. Based on talent alone, the tall, durable, athletic righthander could be drafted as high as the third round, but was not expected to break his commitment unless he was taken in the first. He has a solid-average fastball that has been up to 94 mph. He uses it to get ahead of hitters and shows some ability to spot it on both corners, though his command is fringy overall. He throws a hard breaking ball that has some late tilt, but he also has a cutter, and the two pitches tend to morph into one, lacking true shape and depth. He has some feel for a changeup. He does not hold runners on base well. Harris also is Navy's top hitter, leading the Patriot League with eight home runs this spring and ranking second in OPS. Scouts laud Harris for his competitiveness and are generally intrigued in him as a prospect on the mound. He could be 23 before he ever gets to pitch professionally, however.
