Lowy, Greeny on the edge of their seats tonight. Early Cy Young favorite.

Love Harvey. If only the Mets could score a stinkin' run.KJ Duke wrote:Lowy, Greeny on the edge of their seats tonight. Early Cy Young favorite.
That's asking too much. The Padres offense has been putting the Mets to shame lately.Glenneration X wrote:

It's way too early for that talk. First time many teams are seeing him pitch. He starts facing teams a third and fourth time and I don't see this continuing. Regression is near.mbendar16 wrote:KJ - One more Mets fans here on the edge of his seat through the game tonight. I saw him come out for the 1st with a bloody nose and he just didn't care and mowed down the side in order and as everyone knows, 23 of the next 24. Quite the dominant effort as you noted. I said to myself on the infield single how the ump could call him safe on such a close call and then they showed the replay and it really wasn't close at all.
The comparisons to Doc Gooden are coming more real for Mets fans and baseball in general with each start. Every 5th day is becoming "The Event", especially when at home.
Disagree. It's not way too early for comparisons to Doc Gooden. In fact its perfect timing considering Doc was far from being a hall of famer and his real dominance came in his first two seasons. Comparing him to Tom Seaver would be too early. And he has made 17 starts and he did pitch dominantly last year. I doubt he will pitch 1.00 ERA all season but he is the best pitcher in baseball right now.JimyMarlboroBallgame wrote:It's way too early for that talk. First time many teams are seeing him pitch.

Don't forget he pitched last year against many good hitting teams and was still extremely good. Nats 1ER, Rockies 1ER, Reds 1ER, SF 2ER, Atl 2ER. It will even out and he isn't going to pitch every game like he did last night, but we aren't dealing with a 1 pitch fireballer or a crafty pitcher. We are watching a dominant 4 pitch guy with a high 90s fastball with movement. The makings of greatness.CASS wrote:Matt harvey in 7 starts has faced 5 of the 6 lowest scoring teams in baseball. The "best" offense he's faced stastically is the murderers row Padres. The winds of regression will blow once he faces a team with a pulse.

Not sure why that matters at all..Atlas wrote:Not to take anything away from Harvey's great performance (I had Santiago)
but does anyone realize that, for comparison purposes, Madison Baumgarner is actually younger than Harvey...by only months, but still...
Thats silly, watch the guy pitch. The only way he will regress is if he gets hurt.....It's had to regress with a 98mph heater...lolJimyMarlboroBallgame wrote:It's way too early for that talk.
