Former New York Mets SP Matt Harvey is back in MLB

Matt Harvey is about to have a second chance to show he has what it takes to be a starting pitcher in Major League Baseball. At one point in time, Harvey looked like he was going to be one of the most dominant pitchers in baseball for the New York Mets, but injuries and off-the-field drama led to his eventual demise.

Now, Harvey is getting another chance to pitch; this time for the Kansas City Royals.
