Kyle Harrison's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Updating a previous report, San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Kyle Harrison (shoulder) was placed in the injured list on Friday with left-shoulder inflammation. The Giants have shut him down for the remainder of the season and will look towards 2025 for the lefty. Harrison's velocity had been down in the second half of the season, resulting in a very subpar 5.63 ERA in eight starts after the All-Star break. The 23-year-old was able to make 24 starts this season and posted a 4.56 ERA, though it was paired with a 4.85 xERA (17th percentile). Harrison will have work to do to improve in 2025 and stabilize the back end of a solid Giants rotation. Fantasy managers who are looking to replace Harrison on their roster may want to look at Hayden Birdsong, who has struck out 64 batters in 52 IP, though his 5.19 ERA may cause some worries.

The San Francisco Giants placed left-hander Kyle Harrison (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list (retroactive to Sept. 4) on Friday with left-shoulder inflammation and recalled right-hander Austin Warren from Triple-A Sacramento in a corresponding move. The move comes after Harrison was slapped around on Tuesday in his most recent outing versus the division-rival Arizona Diamondbacks, when he surrendered six earned runs on seven hits while walking one and fanning three in just 2 2/3 frames. The 23-year-old southpaw has been awful since the start of August with a 7.76 ERA and 1.57 WHIP over 26 2/3 innings, but it's unclear how long his shoulder has been bothering him. There is time for Harrison to return to SF's starting rotation, but only if he's able to return after the 15 days. In any event, there's a good chance we've seen the last of Harrison in 2024.

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Kyle Harrison struck out 11 batters across 6 2/3 innings of one-run ball. He allowed just one hit and two walks. The only run scored in the third inning off a sacrifice fly by Ezequiel Tovar. The 22-year-old southpaw has begun to find his footing over his last three starts, as he has carried a stellar 1.06 ERA, 0.82 WHIP, and a 7:20 BB:K. Prior to his most recent three outings, Harrison carried a hefty 5.55 ERA and 1.57 WHIP from May 12 to July 6. Overall, he sits with a 3.69 ERA and 1.28 WHIP through 97 innings this season. Harrison could be worth starting in all leagues as he continues this excellent run.

San Francisco Giants left-hander Kyle Harrison (ankle) is slated to be reinstated from the 15-day injured list in order to make his return to the team's starting rotation on Saturday against the hosting Cleveland Guardians. Harrison has missed almost a month of action due to a right-ankle sprain, but he's going to skip a minor-league rehab assignment and jump right back into big-league action. The 22-year-old southpaw will be making his first start since June 10. Harrison has been decent for the Giants and fantasy managers in 2024, going 4-3 with a 3.96 ERA and 1.33 WHIP with 68 strikeouts in 14 starts covering 77 1/3 innings. He'll be much more risky in fantasy lineups in his first start back after a long layoff, though, especially on the road and against the first-place Guardians. Tread carefully on Saturday.

San Francisco Giants left-hander Kyle Harrison notched his seventh quality start after he allowed one earned run over 6 1/3 innings in Monday's 4-3 extra-inning win over the Houston Astros. Harrison scattered four hits and did not allow a walk while striking out three despite recording a no-decision. The promising youngster has been up and down all season with a 4-3 record and a 3.96 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 68 strikeouts and 22 walks over 77 1/3 innings. After managing the Astros, Harrison has a much better matchup against the Angels on Sunday, something fantasy managers (especially DFS gamers) should keep in mind.
