Strikes out 11 in win Harrison (1-0) allowed three hits and two walks while striking out 11 over 6.1 scoreless innings to earn the win Monday over the Reds.

Impact Harrison was fine in his debut in Philadelphia last Tuesday, but he was dazzling in his home debut against a formidable lineup. He allowed just two runners to get into scoring position on his watch. Harrison has a 16:3 K:BB over 9.2 major-league innings and should be able to stick in a less-than-encouraging Giants rotation. He's tentatively projected for a road start in San Diego this weekend.

Next start slated for Monday Harrison's next start for the Giants is expected to come Monday against the Reds, Danny Emerman of KNBR reports.

Impact Harrison would be on turn to pitch Sunday, but with Atlanta featuring a right-handed heavy lineup, the rookie is expected to be pushed back a day. Manager Gabe Kapler hasn't officially named starters for Sunday or Monday yet, but it sounds like it will be a bullpen day Sunday before Harrison takes the ball Monday.

Strikes out five in MLB debut Harrison did not factor into the decision Tuesday, allowing two runs on five hits and one walk over 3.1 innings against the Phillies. He struck out five.

Impact The 22-year-old southpaw received an inhospitable introduction to the MLB when Bryce Harper took him deep to right for a first-inning, two-run homer Tuesday. However, Harrison demonstrated his massive strikeout potential, as each of the first five outs he recorded against Philadelphia were via the punch out. The strikeouts come as no surprise, as he led all of minor-league baseball with 14.5 K/9 prior to his promotion, but his control issues (6.4 BB/9) were the main culprit in limiting Harrison's overall production. He completed five innings just one time in his 21 minor-league starts this year. If he sticks around in San Francisco, the rookie will undoubtedly rack up big strikeout numbers, although his inefficiency and limited pitch counts suggest that quality starts and wins may be tough to come by. Harrison tentatively lines up to face the Reds at home early next week.

Selected for MLB debut The Giants selected Harrison's contract from Triple-A Sacramento ahead of his major-league debut Tuesday at Philadelphia.

Impact Harrison has officially arrived in the majors just 10 days after his 22nd birthday and will try to help plug the leak in San Francisco's injury-ravaged rotation. The young left-hander was showing an underwhelming 4.66 ERA through 65.2 innings of work this summer at the Triple-A level and will likely be on a limited pitch count after missing most of July due to a Grade 2 hamstring strain, but he possesses an elite strikeout arsenal and should offer considerable fantasy appeal down the stretch.

Likely to join MLB rotation Tuesday The Giants are expected to call up Harrison from Triple-A Sacramento to pitch during Tuesday's game in Philadelphia, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

Impact Harrison has started in each of his 69 career minor-league appearances, but Giants manager Gabe Kapler could choose to deploy the 22-year-old lefty as a primary pitcher out of the bullpen in an effort to keep his innings in check and optimize his performance. Whatever the case, Harrison looks poised to fill a spot in the Giants' barren rotation. He earned his ticket to the big leagues by producing a 4.52 ERA and 1.48 WHIP while holding opposing batters to a .210 average and striking out 109 this season across 67.2 frames in the minors, with all but two of those innings coming in the notoriously hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League. His strikeout upside makes him an intriguing speculative pickup, though fantasy managers should temper expectations for Harrison given that his innings are likely to be monitored carefully in any appearances he makes for the Giants down the stretch.

Returns to action at Triple-A Harrison (hamstring) allowed a run on one hit and four walks while striking out two over two innings in his return to the Triple-A Sacramento roster.

Impact Harrison missed about a month of action with a right hamstring strain. The southpaw was a bit wild in the outing, but it's a positive that he's back in action. Harrison will still need to build back up somewhat, though it's possible he could also be summoned to the majors as a reinforcement for the Giants' bullpen at some point before the end of the campaign.

AUGUST 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Starts up rehab assignment Harrison (hamstring) began a rehab assignment Monday with the Giants' rookie-level Arizona Complex League affiliate, striking out four over two perfect innings.

Impact The outing was Harrison's first since July 4 after he was placed on Triple-A Sacramento's 7-day injured list a couple days later due to a right hamstring strain. The left-hander's return to action in Arizona couldn't have gone any better, but it's unclear if he'll rejoin the Sacramento rotation for his next outing or if he'll require one or two more rehab starts in the lower minors.

Goes on 7-day IL Triple-A Sacramento placed Harrison (hamstring) on its 7-day injured list July 6.

Impact Harrison is dealing with a Grade 2 right hamstring strain, an injury that prevented him from pitching in the All-Star Futures Game earlier this month. The right-hander is without a clear timeline for a return, though this type of injury often requires a multi-week healing process. Harrison had posted a 4.79 ERA, 1.57 WHIP and 92:44 K:BB over his 56.1 innings with Sacramento prior to being deactivated.

Has moderate hamstring strain Harrison was diagnosed Friday with a moderate right hamstring strain, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Impact Harrison will have to bow out of a scheduled appearance in the Futures Game on Saturday and he might have to skip a few turns in the Triple-A Sacramento rotation. The 21-year-old top pitching prospect has recorded 92 strikeouts through 56.1 innings (17 starts) this season in the Pacific Coast League, though his 4.79 ERA and 1.56 WHIP aren't quite as eye-popping.

JULY 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Control more palatable of late Harrison has a 3.13 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 53:16 K:BB in 31.2 innings over his last eight starts for Triple-A Sacramento.

Impact His 4.5 BB/9 over that stretch is still on the high side, but it's a major improvement on the 12.1 BB/9 Harrison registered in his first six starts of the year. The talented lefty has been limited to fewer than four innings in four of his last eight starts and has only logged five innings once this season -- in his most recent start -- but he could get the call to the majors sometime this summer if he continues to keep the walks somewhat in check.

JUNE 20, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

More walks than K's at Triple-A Harrison tossed three scoreless innings with one hit allowed, three walks and five strikeouts Thursday for Triple-A Sacramento.

Impact This was Harrison's best start of the year, but that's damning with faint praise, as he still walked a batter per inning and only recorded nine outs. On the season, he has 13 walks and 12 strikeouts and has not gone deeper than 3.1 innings.
