Kyle Harrison is a fantasy baseball SP prospect sleeper and minor leaguer to know. Read our MLB prospects outlooks for fantasy baseball rookies and call-ups.
PROSPECT: Kyle Harrison, SP, San Francisco Giants
ANALYSIS: Considered one of the top prep arms available in the 2020 draft, Harrison fell to the Giants in the third round as he sought a big signing bonus to pass over his commitment to UCLA. The Giants met those demands, signing Harrison for just short of a $2.5 million bonus.
Harrison's mid-90s fastball has led his offerings, a dominant pitch from the left side with the rise that he gets on the pitch and his low release point. He pairs that with a plus sweeping slider and an average change.
Control has been the bugaboo for Harrison in the minors, even as he's been one of the most dominant pitchers in the minors the past few seasons. This year, control was an issue as he opened the season again. However, he's dropped his walk rate each month this season while striking out an incredible amount of hitters. Over the last month, he's posted a 1.74 ERA over five starts with a 33/10 K/BB rate.
VERDICT: Harrison's improved control of late puts him squarely at the top of the list of the next elite arm to be called up. He is a guy that should be owned in redraft leagues as well as dynasties.
