How Keith Hernandez quietly tried to help Matt Harvey

Even Matt Harvey’s agent thought he was beyond saving.

In an appearance on WFAN’s “Boomer and Gio” Wednesday morning, Mets broadcaster Keith Hernandez recalled a conversation with Scott Boras — Harvey’s agent — in which Hernandez expressed concern for Harvey’s behavior and Boras said there was nothing he could do to stop it.

“I called Scott, I said, ‘Scott, you gotta pull the reins on this guy, because he’s gonna make it tough on himself,’ ” Hernandez, who had Boras as an agent at the end of his career, said.

“He goes, ‘Keith, I can’t, he’s gonna do — he’s his own guy — he’s gonna do what he’s gonna do.
