Harris spent all of the 2011 season at Triple-A in the Orioles organization, producing an ugly .225/.282/.331 batting line with 10 homers. The Rockies will have a competition in spring training for the third base job, but Harris almost surely will be on the outside looking in.

Mon Mar 7 201116:19Orioles' Harris collects four doubles
Brendan Harris picked up his fourth double of the spring Monday versus the Red Sox.
Harris is 5-for-15 with four RBI. If Felix Pie and Cesar Izturis are the locks for the Baltimore bench, that would leave just one spot for Harris, Nolan Reimold, Robert Andino, Jake Fox or Nick Green. Harris is an underdog in that mix, but he could impress another team with his play.

Orioles president of baseball operations Andy MacPhail has confirmed that Brendan Harris will have to play his way onto the team with a good spring.
"We definitely can have room for both," MacPhail said. "Harris can play third. He can play other positions, but he pretty much has to make the team out of spring training. He'll be in a competition with [Robert] Andino and others." In addition to Andino, the newly signed Nick Green compete with Harris for a utility spot.

Harris, 30, batted .157/.233/.213 with one home run and four RBI over 120 plate appearances this past season and didn't really fit in the team's plans anymore. He'll function as a utility infielder on his new club.
Thu Jun 24 201017:44Twins outright Brendan Harris to Triple-A
Twins sent 3B Brendan Harris outright to Triple-A Rochester.
Harris, 29, was given ample time to establish himself as a useful utility infielder this season in Minnesota, but he rattled off a .157/.233/.213 batting line in 108 at-bats. If he builds some confidence in the minors, perhaps the Twins will give him a shot later this summer.
Tue May 18 201015:22Twins' Harris goes hitless in loss
Brendan Harris went 0-for-4 on Tuesday, leaving him 1-for-17 in his last five games and dropping his average to .186.
Harris hasn't capitalized on J.J. Hardy's absence, so he'll head back to the bench later this week. With the way he's played over the last year, it's a good thing he has the job security of a two-year, $3.2 million contract.
Fri Apr 9 201001:16Twins' Harris hits two-run homer
In his first start of the year, Brendan Harris hit a two-run homer off Joel Pineiro and walked Thursday against the Angels.
The Twins were having an awfully difficult time getting Pineiro's sinker into the air until Harris went and knocked a pitch over the left-field wall in the fifth, breaking a 1-1 tie. As thoroughly as Harris outplayed Nick Punto this spring, he clearly deserves to be starting more than once every four games. However, he might be right back out there Friday after Orlando Hudson got hurt tonight.
