Fantasy Impact
For the third year in a row, Harvey won't get in a full season of work. He debuted in 2019 and made just seven appearances. In 2020, he made 10 starts while battling a forearm strain amidst the COVID-shortened season. Now, he'll be on the shelf through mid-to-late May at the earliest. The former first-round pick owns a career 3.00 ERA over 15 innings of work. He has allowed seven runs (five earned), 11 hits, and six walks while striking out 17 baters.
