Atlanta Braves skipper Walt Weiss provided a cautiously optimistic update on Michael Harris II<\/a> on Friday. Weiss told reporters that Harris is feeling better and continuing to receive treatment for the back injury that sidelined him earlier this week.<\/p>\n

However, Weiss also acknowledged that an injured list stint remains a possibility if Harris does not show enough improvement over the next few days. While Harris was available off the bench Friday, the Braves did not need to call on him as they secured the win.<\/p>\n

For now, both Harris and the Braves are hoping continued treatment will allow him to avoid the injured list and return to the lineup soon.<\/p>\n

Despite the rainy night across the farm, Alex Lodise logged a home run for the Augusta GreenJackets. More in the minor league recap.<\/a><\/p>\n

Bobby Witt Jr<\/a>. of the Kansas City Royals was left out of the lineup Friday due to a Grade 1 MCL sprain.<\/p>\n
