LGM!
I do appreciate what little he did accomplish for the Mets. But I feel zero connection to him as a player (like I would maybe with David Wright, but I was much younger) and if Im being honest...I really dont feel bad for him. If that makes me a bad guy, Im okay with that. I mean, Im an adult so I really dont have a connection to any of these guys lol but Harvey has always just rubbed me the wrong way.
This I really have no issue with.
If you say you're enjoying his demise, I think that's a little much - but hey man, we've done this a billion times already. No reason for us to waste more time on it.
I get why he rubbed people the wrong way. I actually thought a little humble pie would serve him well. But unfortunately the stuff just isn't there anymore and unless he finds a way to totally re-invent himself, he's nothing more than a fringe back end starter.
So, I think we can all agree that if Jason Vargas is going to jump into the rotation upon his return, it's Matt's spot he should take. And Matt should really go down and be instructed to work on becoming more of a pitcher.
If he can't do that, he's not going to find many potential suitors after he leaves here.
