Mets need Harvey to walk the walk
Matt Harvey has been called a lot of things, but if he wants to be called great then he needs to pick up the Mets when they need him most. The stage was set for him in Game 2 of the NLDS. The Mets were sucker-punched and battle lines have been drawn. If Harvey wants to own New York once again, it’s there for the taking in Game 3 at Citi Field on Monday.
Harvey was dubbed the Dark Knight early in 2013 as he was embarking on what would be his breakout year. He was anointed the leader of the Mets rotation youth movement, but abdicated the throne when he missed all of 2014. While he was away, the Mets watched Jacob deGrom and Noah Syndergaard emerge as stars.
