What happened to Matt Harvey's MLB career?
Matt Harvey also referred to as the "Dark Knight," burst onto the scene with the New York Mets in 2012 and quickly became one of the most promising young pitchers in the MLB.
During the 2013 season, Harvey reached the peak of his career, starting the All-Star Game at Citi Field, the home stadium of the Mets. However, following that season, things started to decline. Reports of his partying and late-night activities began to emerge, leading to concerns about his commitment to the game.
Moreover, injuries and subsequent surgeries plagued Harvey's career. He underwent Tommy John surgery in 2013 and another procedure for thoracic outlet syndrome in 2016. These injuries affected his performance, and he struggled to regain his earlier form.
After leaving the Mets, Harvey had stints with the Cincinnati Reds, Los Angeles Angels, Kansas City Royals and Baltimore Orioles. However, he was unable to recapture his earlier success and struggled for consistency on the mound.
On May 17, 2022, his 60-game MLB suspension for participating in the distribution of a prohibited drug of abuse proved to be the final nail in the coffin. The suspension - due to his involvement in the distribution of a prohibited drug of abuse - was linked to his testimony related to the death of former teammate Tyler Skaggs
On May 5, 2023, Harvey announced his MLB retirement.
