Matt Harvey Signs With A's
5 years agoThe Oakland Athletics reached a minor league deal with starting pitcher Matt Harvey on Wednesday, according to a source. Harvey was released by the Angels this year after posting an ugly 7.09 ERA while allowing 13 homers and an .887 OPS to opponents over 12 starts. The veteran right-hander must prove himself in the minors before the A's even consider him as an option for their rotation or bullpen in the big leagues. Harvey's velocity has been down noticeably in recent years since his shoulder surgery, and he's nowhere near the same pitcher we used to call the Dark Knight in his time with the Mets to begin his career. You can keep ignoring him in fantasy.
