A touted lefthanded prospect for the Athletics, Harris was a third round choice in 2018 and was a Top 20 prospect. He finished the 2019 season with 13 scoreless innings in his last 3 games as a starter, a strong finish for the 2018 draft pick out of Louisiana- Lafayette. His performance earned him a spot on the Oakland Athletics 2020 Top prospect list as one of the strongest performers in the system. Harris recorded 117 strikeouts with the A’s from 2023-2024.

Harris can claim something very unique, as he was the starter of the A’s during their “reverse boycott” in 2023. The crowd was so raucous that he was having trouble hearing his pitch-com. 

In 2025, Harris has continued to be a valuable arm in the A’s bullpen, with a 3.42 ERA and 28 strikeouts through his first 20 appearances.

Randy finished the 2024 season with 20+ home runs and 20+ stolen bases. He now has 4 consecutive seasons with this achievement.

He started the month off with a walk-off single to beat the Twins. He was then selected for the All-Star for the second time in his career, following a scorching hot start to June where he hit 7 home runs in 11 games.

Larry Walker grew up with sticks, skates and pads as a hockey hopeful. His sports destiny, however, landed him on the baseball diamond – and with a permanent place in the game’s storied history.

Born Dec.1, 1966, in Maple Ridge, British Columbia, Walker followed the path of thousands of other Canadian athletes into the junior hockey ranks. His brother, Carey, was drafted by the Montreal Canadiens, and Larry had visions of a National Hockey League career like the one of Cam Neely, a future Boston Bruin who was Walker’s teammate in junior hockey. Walker found his calling in baseball and played on regional teams and was eventually signed by the Montreal Expos in 1984, as an undrafted free agent. 

From there, Walker was on the fast track to success. After finishing seventh in the 1990 National League Rookie of the Year voting, Walker harnessed his five-tool talent with a work ethic born on the frozen ponds of his home country. He made his first All-Star team in 1992 and also won his first Gold Glove Award that same year, then led the Expos to a 74-40 record in 1994 before the strike ended the season. Between 1995 and 2003, Walker won one home run title (49 in 1997), three batting titles (1998, 1999, 2001), five Gold Glove Awards in right field and the 1997 NL MVP Award. He was the first Canadian born player to win the award. That year, in addition to his league-best 49 home runs, he posted 130 RBI, a .366 average and 33 stolen bases. His 409 total bases that year is the 18th-best total in big league history.

His final numbers: a .313 career batting average, 383 home runs, 1,311 RBI, 230 stolen bases and seven Gold Glove Awards. Walker was elected to the Hall of Fame in 2020.

Jonathan India is an infielder for the Kansas City Royals. After attending American Heritage School in Delray Beach, Florida, Jonathan was drafted by the Milwaukee Brewers in the 26th round of the 2015 MLB Draft. Instead of going straight to the MLB, Jonathan opted to play college baseball for the Florida Gators. In the 2018 season, Jonathan hit 21 home runs that were 6th in the nation; he was also awarded SEC Baseball Player of the Year.

As a top prospect in the 2018 MLB Draft, Jonathan was drafted 5th overall by the Cincinnati Reds. This past season, Jonathan played for the Cincinnati Reds’ AA club, the Chattanooga Lookouts. In January 2020, the Cincinnati Reds invited Jonathan to their Major League Spring Training in Goodyear, Arizona, and again in 2021. Jonathan shined and was made the starting second baseman for the Reds at the start of the 2021 regular season. In his first 5 games of this 2021 season, Jonathan has hit 7 RBIs - more than any other Reds player to start a season in franchise history.  He’s since continued to rapidly strengthen his play over the year, earning him Rookie of the Month honors in July. His breakthrough season resulted in him winning the 2021 MLB NL Rookie of the Year with 29 out of 30 1st-place votes and a finalist for a Silver Slugger Award at his position.

The 2023 season for Jonathan and the Reds was one for the history books, with the longest win streak by any team this season at 12-games. The Reds historic feat was something that hadn’t been done in 133 years, winning 12 games in a row following a year where they lost 100+ games the previous season. 

In the month of June of the 2024 season, Jonathan unleashed his true potential and one of his best stretches since entering the MLB. He slashed .380/.454/.587 and had a wRC+ (weighted runs created plus) of 183. He hit 13 doubles in June and carried the offense at a time when they desperately needed it. India was awarded NL Player of the Week honors in the last week of June. He batted .539 (14-for-26), hit 10 doubles, drew four walks, and had only three strikeouts. He also scored eight runs, recorded 5 RBIs, and rode a 12-game hit streak.

Ahead of the 2025 season, Jonathan was traded to the Kansas City Royals where he will be a crucial player to help the team return to the playoffs.

This year with the Royals, India has been a critical piece of the team’s young core. From May 19 to May 29, India got hot, hitting .322 with an .800 OPS, helping to keep the Royals afloat during a slow stretch.
