Harrison is a hold — league-average run prevention, nothing unstable

His expected ERA is 4.01, a hair under the league average of 4.10, and he has faced enough batters for that number to be reliable. The contact-quality numbers agree: his expected wOBA allowed is .308 against a league average of .315, his hard-hit rate allowed is 38.8% against 40.0%, and his barrel rate allowed is 8.1% against 8.0%. Nothing there is out of line. His strikeout rate is the one number that stands apart — 27.9%, well above the league's 22.0% — and his walk rate of 7.1% is a touch better than league. The expected ERA has been stepping down across the sample, which points to the skill holding rather than luck propping it up. There is no suppressed BABIP-against to give back and no inflated line waiting to fall. He is what the numbers say he is. Hold. 0 K / 4.01 ERA / 1.26 WHIP is droppable, streaming-only filler — hold the read, not the roster spot.
