The dear old friend of the New York Mets, Matt Harvey, spent the last of his 2018 days with the Cincinnati Reds. During the trade deadline season, it did look like there was an opportunity for him to get traded to a contender. No deal ever happened, leaving Harvey in baseball purgatory.
Things may be different for the former Dark Knight in 2019. In fact, Mets fans may see him plenty.
Three of the division rivals the Mets face regularly could target Harvey over the winter. The Atlanta Braves, Philadelphia Phillies, and Washington Nationals could all use a veteran starting pitcher.
