Matt Harvey’s tumultuous tenure with the Mets came to an end in May

Coming into the 2018 season, nobody expected Matt Harvey to resemble anything close to the elite pitcher who took the baseball world by storm in 2012 and started Game 1 and Game 5 of the 2015 World Series for the New York Mets. Still, with a lot to prove to the team and to himself heading into the final year before free agency, there was some hope that “The Dark Knight” could rebound from back-to-back nightmare seasons and become a moderately effective starter that could help stabilize the back-end of the club’s rotation.
