[QUOTE="Serious Late, post: 1358282, member: 5520"] Matt Harvey would be veeeeeeeeeery interesting. I have no idea what to make of him right now, but there was a point in time where he was dominating. So many of the top closers were former starters that just didn't cut it for one reason or another. I wonder how open to that role Harvey might be at this point. His average fastball velocity is down 2.0 mph from a couple years ago, pitching out of relief might help improve that particular number and his overall effectiveness. There is also the matter of actually getting him from the Mets. Alderson doesn't sound too keen on trading him with his value so low, but that could just be a bargaining ploy. [/QUOTE]
