Harrison went 4-for-6 with a double, two RBI and a pair of runs scored in Sunday's 11-3 victory over the Dodgers.

EDGE Analysis

Harrison has come to life in eight games since moving into the leadoff spot, and is now hitting .363 with eight runs scored and four RBI during that time. It has been a down season for Harrison on the whole, but he could be a difference maker down the stretch if he continues to produce while hitting in front of the likes of Andrew McCutchen, Starling Marte and Gregory Polanco.

Harrison is out of the lineup Saturday against the Dodgers, MLB.com's Adam Berry reports.

EDGE Analysis

Harrison is batting .310 since moving to the leadoff spot a week ago, and will get his first day off since then. Adam Frazier will start at second base and slot into the leadoff spot for Saturday's matinee.

Harrison is batting .310 (9-for-29) since moving to the leadoff spot seven games ago.

EDGE Analysis

The second baseman hit .181/.212/.292 in his previous 151 plate appearances. With a 13:60 BB:K, Harrison is far from the prototypical leadoff man. He appears to be the best fit right now, however, so look for him to potentially score more runs while he hits first in the order.

Harrison went 1-for-4 his fourth homer while batting leadoff again Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The homer was his first since July 20th and the RBI was his third since July 6th -- a span covering 22 games and 70 plate appearances. Harrison also missed connecting for a game-tying grand slam by just a few feet. The second baseman batted first in the order over the weekend with improved results.

Harrison hit leadoff for the second straight game Saturday, going 2-for-4 with a pair of runs scored.

EDGE Analysis

Hot-hitting Adam Frazier has taken away a couple starts from Harrison in the last week, but Harrison is by far the better defender at second base. The move to the top of the batting order has sparked the Cincinnati native and it wouldn't be surprising to see his months-long slump come to a close.

Harrison (leg) is back in the lineup Thursday against the Braves.

EDGE Analysis

The Pirates never really elaborated on the extent of Harrison's right leg injury -- they labeled it as "discomfort" -- but apparently it was a relatively minor setback as Harrison's slated to return following a two-game absence. Harrison is barely hitting above the Mendoza Line over the past two months, and with three homers and 12 steals on the season, he currently ranks outside the top-20 options at second base in terms of season-to-date production.

Harrison (leg) is out of Wednesday's lineup against Atlanta, Rob Biertempfel of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports.

EDGE Analysis

For the second day in a row, Adam Frazier will get the nod to start at second while Harrison deals with a leg injury. Frazier, who's hitting .400/.444/.720 over the last 14 days, is likely to continue starting at second until Harrison is ready to return. Pittsburgh has yet to say the severity of Harrison's injury, so he should be considered to be day-to-day at this point.

Harrison (leg) is out of the lineup Tuesday against the Braves.

EDGE Analysis

Adam Frazier will start at second as Josh Harrison sits out of Tuesday's contest. The team has yet to say the extent of Harrison's injury or indicate when he will be ready to return, but information should be available in the near future.

Harrison exited Sunday's game in the sixth inning with right leg discomfort, Stephen J. Nesbitt of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

EDGE Analysis

It certainly appeared Harrison's right leg was the issue and that's indeed the case. The extent of the injury remains unclear but the team should update his status again in the coming days. If he's unable to go for the team's next contest Tuesday against the Braves, Jordy Mercer, Sean Rodriguez and Adam Frazier would all be candidates to start in his place at second base.

Harrison departed Sunday's game against the Brewers in the sixth inning with an apparent right leg injury, Rob Biertempfel of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports.

EDGE Analysis

Harrison collided with Brewers outfielder Keon Broxton at first base and was extremely slow to get up. He immediately departed the game, with Adam Frazier replacing him at second base. The team should update his status again when more about the injury surfaces.
