If you haven't yet reached your limit on first-year pitchers with outstanding K-rates (who might also detonate your fantasy ratios upon arrival), we have another name for the watch list: Kyle Harrison has struck out 47 batters over his 26.2 innings for Triple-A Sacramento so far this season.
His seventh homer of the season for Louisville was a 465-foot blast. He has 18 extra-base hits and seven steals over 27 games and he's slashing .281/.374/.588. There's plenty of swing-and-miss in his game , so we probably shouldn't expect him to hit for average in the majors. Still, he's a spectacular power/speed talent who's seen time all over the infield. Whenever he's promoted, his debut will be a must-watch event.
update: He's up to 73 Ks over 40.2 innings in the high minors. He leads the minors in K% with an absurd 45.3. Louisville has proven more challenging than Double-A, but the strikeouts haven't stopped.? It may feel as if he's a name from the '90s, but actually, Adell is still just 24 years old. He obviously hasn't broken through in the majors to this point, but he currently leads all minor league hitters with 17 bombs on the season while slashing .298/.394/.683.
