Released by the Philadelphia Phillies this summer, when he didn’t make the Opening Day roster out of Spring Training 2.0, 33-year-old, 10-year veteran Josh Harrison didn’t have a long wait before another team came calling.
Harrison signed on with Washington’s Nationals six days after he became a free agent, and in 30 games (19 starts) and 80 plate appearances this season, he’s put up a .271/.338/.429 line (as of Friday morning) with two doubles, three home runs, and 12 RBIs (more on those, and particularly two-out ones, later).
