Kyle Harrison Tames Red Sox in Tight Victory
by Chase Davis | Giants Correspondent | Fri, May 3rd 8:31am EDT
Kyle Harrison allowed one earned run on three hits and five walks while striking out seven over five innings in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Red Sox.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the high walk count, Harrison managed to keep the damage to a minimum, showcasing his ability to escape jams. His season ERA now sits at a respectable 3.79, with a WHIP of 1.29, indicating some control issues but also a solid ability to miss bats, as evidenced by his 9.0 K/9 rate. Fantasy managers should note his high walk rates could be a concern, but his strikeout ability and relatively low ERA make him a viable option in most formats. Harrison's performance in high-pressure situations, like this game against a strong lineup, adds a layer of reliability, though the walks are a yellow flag moving forward.
