The Outlook
Harman has rounded into form a bit of late, but overall his 2018 season is quite uninspiring; he now ranks 90th in the field in Long-Term Greens in Regulation. That's made even more problematic considering he's struggled to scramble or putt well during that time period.
The talent is there, and he's a fine price at just $7,100 on DraftKings, but the upside just isn't there to warrant investment.
