The Boston Red Sox traded away Kyle Harrison as part of the deal to acquire Caleb Durbin this offseason, and he is thriving with the Milwaukee Brewers.

Harrison is not only pitching better than he ever has, but he is currently one of the best arms in the National League. On Wednesday, he made his ninth start of the season. He went seven innings, which tied a career high, and notched 11 strikeouts against the Chicago Cubs.

His ERA is now 1. 77 on the season. He has 59 strikeouts as well.

Harrison is the Brewers' No. 2 starter and is making a strong case to be considered an All-Star. If he continues at this rate, he will surely be in consideration for a Cy Young Award.
