Blake Sullivan profiles pitcher Matt Harvey as a waiver wire pickup and add in Week 16 of the 2018 MLB season for his recent turnaround and consistency.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 28% of leagues
ANALYSIS: Matt Harvey has lost all of his fantasy respect over the last few years due to injury and poor performance. That is why he's available right now. He has turned things around of late, as he has won his last four decisions. Harvey has a 3.64 ERA this year with the Cincinnati Reds. This is just 0.02 points lower than his career average for ERA. His K/9 is at 6.80. This isn't great, but he has been getting the job done. His ground ball percentage is at 43.7% which is close to his highest seasons. Since joining the Reds, Harvey is 5-3.
Harvey may have some bumps along the way, but he should continue to figure out what works for him as he has had to almost reinvent himself. He hasn't proven himself enough to be considered a rest of season add, but he deserves to picked up in 12+ team leagues. Eduardo Rodriguez being hurt leaves a spot open on a lot of teams. He looks like he could be an equal replacement for the time being.
