On Saturday night at Citi Field, in Game 1 of the NLCS, Matt Harvey didn’t just dominate. Harvey didn’t just help lead the Mets to a 1-0 lead in the best-of-seven series. He didn’t just hang in there after a line drive struck him in the triceps. Harvey did more than that. He completed his redemption.
On September 5, when Harvey stunned fans and media alike by intimating that he was on board with agent Scott Boras’ newly-proposed hard 180-inning cap, he was crushed from all angles, including by me right here.
