Brewers manager Pat Murphy said after Sunday's 12-8 loss to the Reds that Harrison could be shifted to a relief role or make shorter planned starts, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. The left-hander took a no-decision in the loss, giving up six runs (four earned) on nine hits and four walks while striking out four over 3.2 innings.
For a second straight start, Harrison was limited to exactly 3.2 innings, and he hasn't pitched beyond five frames in his past eight outings. In just his last five starts alone, he's surrendered 24 runs, including 10 home runs. Whether it's making shorter starts or working out of the bullpen, either role would likely result in reduced fantasy relevance for Harrison, whose upside has already been limited due to his recent struggles.
