| 5/10/05 | Harris does all he is asked to do, except he has only been asked a few times so far. |
| 5/01/05 | Harris left the team for personal reasons and was expected back Tuesday. Harris, normally a second baseman, had been slated to make his third straight start at shortstop with Juan Uribe (groin) and Pablo Ozuna (wrist) nursing injuries. Lopez started at shortstop. |
| 4/14/05 | Harris got a start and proved he sure can hit any pitcher by going 2-3, stealing a base and scoring one run and driving in two teamates, leading off. |

| 5/19/04 | Harris crashed with Magglio Ordonez in today's game and both left the game. |
| 5/17/04 | Harris made his debut in center Sunday. Manager Guillen decided to move Harris to keep the red-hot Juan Uribe at second base in the lineup. With Aaron Rowand hitting just .212, Guillen admitted Harris might start to see regular action in center.
|
| 5/11/04 | Mgr. Guillen's task is to get at-bats for Harris while keeping Uribe in the lineup as long as he's hot. Harris has lifted his average to .301. Guillen would like to see him steal more bases. Harris leads the Sox with 5, but could be more aggressive. |

| 4/10/04 | Harris matched a career high with three hits. |
| 3/21/04 | Harris singled and executed a perfect sacrifice bunt, almost beating the throw to first in the process. He then showed some of the range saving a run with a running catch in short right field.
|
| 3/10/04 | Aside from Harris, the Sox don't have much speed in their lineup. Harris said Guillen has given him the green light whenever he feels he can get a jump. "He told me if I get thrown out, who cares? Be aggressive," Harris said. Being aggressive doesn't just mean stealing bases. It means getting good jumps, going from first to third on a base hit, taking the extra base whenever possible and putting pressure on the defense.
|
| 2/03/04 | The White Sox have assured Harris he will be their opening day second baseman. Manager Guillen said "We're going to need him to step up." The Sox have no other legitimate options at second. |

| 7/01/03 | Manager Manuel said that he thinks Harris has a lot of range at second base. However, he refused to indicate if Harris will permanently replace the struggling D'Angelo Jimenez. Harris has started the past two games at the position. |

| 3/26/03 | The White Sox sent Harris back to AAA today. |
| 9/11/02 | Although Harris had 3 hits and 3 stolen bases, he won't get back any time from Jimenez. |
| 8/22/02 | Harris went 3-for-4 yesterday, perhaps snapping out of his slump. However, he probably won't be a very good option for the rest of this season. |
| 8/21/02 | Harris has been dropped to ninth in the leadoff becuse he hasn't been playing well this month. He may lose time to D'Angelo Jimenez later this year. |

| 4/01/02 | As expected, Harris was sent to the minors. |
| 3/29/02 | Harris was informed by management that it likely he will not be with major league team when the season opens. It is felt he has so much potential that sitting on the bench in the majors would be a negative towards his devlopment. Expect to see Harris on the major league roster at some point this season. |
| 3/26/02 | Harris is in competition with Aaron Rowand for the last outfield roster spot with the Sox. It is expected that Rowand may edge him out to allow Harris more regular playing time in the minors. The Sox do not want to hinder his development. |
| 3/22/02 | Second baseman Willie Harris, who also plays center, is in line to win one of the final roster jobs. He has had a remarkable spring, mixing a little power with some speed as well.
|
| 1/29/02 | Baltimore traded Harris to the White Sox today. At AA last year, he hit .305 with nine homers, 49 RBI and 54 stolen bases. He will likely begin this season at AAA. |

| 9/25/01 | Harris has a pulled groin muscle and may not play again this season. |
