Kyle Harrison's Mixed Outing in Giants' Victory
by Chase Davis | Giants Correspondent | Fri, Aug 9th 8:42am EDT
Kyle Harrison had a middling performance in Thursday's 9-5 win over the Nationals.
Fantasy Impact:
He allowed two earned runs on five hits and struck out three over 4.2 innings, without factoring into the decision. Harrison's outing was a mixed bag; while he managed to avoid issuing any walks, he also failed to pitch deep into the game, which could be a concern for fantasy managers relying on him for innings. His season ERA now sits at 4.08 with a WHIP of 1.29, which are decent but not spectacular numbers. Given his moderate strikeout rate (8.2 K/9) and solid strikeout-to-walk ratio (2.85), Harrison remains a viable option in deeper fantasy leagues, though his inability to consistently pitch deep into games may limit his appeal in shallower formats or those that heavily reward innings pitched and wins.
