Kyle Harrison Picks Up Fourth Win With Seven-K Performance Against Padres
Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Kyle Harrison continued his breakout season in 2026 with the Brew Crew by picking up his fourth win of the season in Thursday's series finale at American Family Field against the punchless San Diego Padres. Harrison tossed five shutout innings with five hits allowed, no walks, and seven strikeouts to lower his season ERA to 2.09. The 24-year-old southpaw hasn't gone beyond six innings in any of his eight starts so far this year, but he has tapped into his potential in his first year in Milwaukee and has become a reliable starting pitcher in the majority of fantasy leagues after the San Francisco Giants gave up on him and traded him to the Boston Red Sox last year. Harrison doesn't overpower hitters with velocity, but he came into Thursday's start in the 88th percentile in hard-hit rate, keeping hitters off balance and avoiding barrels. Surprisingly, he also entered Thursday's game in the 88th percentile in strikeout rate. His expected ERA sits at 3.52, so Harrison is likely facing some regression, but he also has a solid .299 xwOBA. After another strong start on Thursday, Harrison has become more of a waiver priority. He's rostered in less than 70% of Yahoo leagues currently.
