PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- This was supposed to be the final Matt Harvey Day of spring training for the New York Mets. Instead, it is a waiting game to learn more details about his undisclosed medical issue.
Harvey was scratched from Tuesday’s Grapefruit League start with what the team labeled a “non-orthopedic” medical issue. That means it is not a shoulder or an elbow or a knee.
What is it? Sandy Alderson said he could not disclose the issue.
Harvey, who turned 27 on Sunday, reported the issue to the team personnel on Monday morning, according to Alderson.
