Josh Harrison Placed On Injured List rotoballer.com Wed 5/1/19 12:23 PM

The Detroit Tigers placed second baseman Josh Harrison on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to April 27, with a left shoulder contusion on Tuesday and recalled infielder Harold Castro from the minors in a corresponding move. The 31-year-old Harrison was hitting a weak .156/.212/.233 in 99 plate appearances this year and isn't worth stashing in most deep formats. Castro could see some starts at the keystone, but Gordon Beckham and Ronny Rodriguez could also mix in there with Jordy Mercer [...]

Detroit Tigers second baseman Josh Harrison's shoulder is still too sore to play on Tuesday, and he can't finish his swing. However, he hasn't had an MRI exam and doesn't think he'll be out much longer. Ronny Rodriguez is starting at the keystone on Tuesday and is hitting fifth against Phillies starter Vince Velasquez.

Harrison is hitting just .122 (9-for-74) with a homer, three RBI and two steals and shouldn't be trusted in any fantasy format until he gets things going.
