Matt Harvey cited positives. Mickey Callaway described it as a “blip.”
Apparently, five runs over two innings is making progress these days for Harvey.
The one-time dominant right-hander, who has struggled since being demoted to the bullpen after back-to-back injury-riddled lost seasons, entered in a rout and turned it into a laugher as the Mets were swept by the Braves, 11-0, at Citi Field on Thursday afternoon.
“It’s a little blip on the road — again — but we got to keep pounding away and try to make sure we do the best we can with Matt Harvey,” Callaway said.
