Korean media network SBS is reporting that former New York Mets star Matt Harvey has made it known that he’s interested in joining a KBO team.
There aren’t many roster spots open in the middle of the season, so it seems unlikely Harvey will join a team anytime soon. However, Harvey’s interest in moving abroad is a significant development.
Harvey had been working out all offseason and even threw bullpens for interested teams. The most notable was a bullpen session he threw for the Toronto Blue Jays in December. Despite his persistence, Harvey hasn’t been able to land a contract.
