Harvey, known for his incredible talent, has put a stop to his illustrious nine-season career in Major League Baseball (MLB) and shifted his focus to real estate. Harvey has played for various teams, including the New York Mets, Cincinnati Reds, Los Angeles Angels, Kansas City Royals, and Baltimore Orioles.
Harvey was selected by the Mets as the seventh overall pick in the 2010 MLB draft. His major league debut in 2012, with 11 strikeouts, set a new record and gave a hint at his promising career ahead.
Harvey earned his place in the 2013 MLB All-Star Game. However, injuries, including an unsuccessful Tommy John surgery that sidelined him for the entire 2014 season, tested his fate.
At the start of April 2022, Harvey re-signed with the Orioles organization on a minor league contract. However, his MLB career was completely derailed when he received a 60-game suspension for the distribution of a prohibited drug of abuse. Harvey's suspension had a connection with his testimony of former teammate Tyler Skaggs' death.
Even though Harvey elected free agency, his career fell apart.
On May 5, 2023, Harvey finally announced his retirement from MLB.
