New York Mets RHP Matt Harvey allowed five runs on eight hits Tuesday, while walking two and striking out one, in five innings during a 7-4 loss to the Nationals, after which he left the ballpark without speaking to reporters.
Manager Terry Collins would not say if Harvey would make his next start. Instead, he'll convene with GM Sandy Alderson and pitching coach Dan Warthen and decide how best to proceed.
First off, I feel bad for Harvey. I really do. I know he's an easy target, but I believe it's in his DNA to be bold and hold himself (and his teammates) to extremely high expectations.
