Josh Harrison (2B/3B/OF, WSH) - Week 17 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues

ROSTERED IN: 11% of leagues

ANALYSIS: Harrison has been a reliable hitter for the Nationals this year but it's mostly gone under the radar in the fantasy community. "J Hay" is a known commodity at this stage of his career so that could be why he's received little attention but his numbers may surprise you. Heading into the All-Star break, he was slashing .271/.348/.375 with 13 doubles, five home runs, 32 RBI, five stolen bases, and 29 runs scored across 269 at-bats. His rate stats have been solid and his expected stats are not far off with a .269 xBA, .333 xwOBA, and .407 xSLG. The 34-year-old utility man is also posting career-highs in hard-hit rate (32.9% ), average exit velocity (87.1 mph), max exit velocity (108.2 mph), and walk rate (6.9%).

The Nats host the Marlins for a three-game series before heading to Baltimore for a three-game set next week. The only reliable starter they're slated to face is Sandy Alcantara as the Marlins are likely to throw out Jordan Holloway and possibly Ross Detwiler in a bullpen game in that series. The Orioles pitching staff ranks in the bottom 1% in baseball in wOBAcon (.407), xBA (.262), xwOBA (.344), and xSLG (.450). Harrison has a career .471/.500/.588 slash line in 17 at-bats against Matt Harvey and Keegan Akin has posted a 7.54 ERA over 45 1/3 innings. He's got a pretty safe floor, logging the majority of his plate appearances while batting second (88 AB's), fifth (51 AB's), or sixth (51 AB's). The ceiling is higher than many realize as Washington should tee off on the lowly O's.
