Kyle Harrison will oppose NL Cy Young front-runner Blake Snell on Saturday in his third MLB start. Brandon Crawford hopes to return this weekend.
SAN DIEGO — One day, the Giants believe, Kyle Harrison will receive Cy Young votes, if not become the first pitcher since Tim Lincecum to bring the hardware home to Oracle Park. He did nothing to dispel that notion in an electrifying home debut.
And for his next act, the Giants’ top pitching prospect will put his Cy Young chops to the test against the front-runner for the award this year. Following up his 6⅓ shutout innings and 11 strikeouts against the Reds, Harrison will square off against Padres lefty Blake Snell on Saturday, the club announced.Harrison threw a season-high 91 pitches Monday and often operated on five or more days rest in the minor leagues.
That’s twice in the span of a week that Kapler, despite his reputation for paying close attention to pitch counts and workloads, allowed his starter to push past his comfort zone. It’s taken a change of heart, Kapler acknowledged, in comparison to the start of his managerial career. “I would have been less comfortable five years ago with both of those moves than I am today,” Kapler said. “And where I am today is: good with it. The game sort of called for it. Cobb was having a historic outing. Harrison was having a historic outing. You don’t have those all that often. It felt right. The bottom line is that the players are almost always going to dictate the move. If they’re the right guy to get the next couple of hitters out, it’s gonna be unusual that we go get them.
