NEW YORK - There is an old race track saying.
It fits at Woodbine, Belmont or even old Frontenac Downs.
You never ever change your mind in the betting line.
It also fits for the Citi Field dugout.
New York Mets manager Terry Collins made up his mind.
Matt Harvey had put up eight zeros, thrown 102 pitches and Collins had made up his mind.
Enough.
Time to go from the tiring stud to the fresh horse.
Harvey was done. Collins told pitching coach Dan Warthen to tell him so.
Harvey got off the bench, walked the length of the dugout where Collins was and argued to stay in the game.
