Earlier this week, the Washington Nationals decided to bring utility man Josh Harrison back on a one-year, one million dollar deal. Harrison played in 33 games for the Nationals in 2020, slashing .278/.352/.418, generating a wRC+ of 106, and an fWAR of 0.2. Extrapolated over a full season, Harrison might be close to a one win per year player.
So, in what will be his age 33 season, what does Harrison bring back to the Nats? As a long time observer of the Pittsburgh Pirates, I am intimately acquainted with Harrison’s on-field production.
