Matt Harvey Pitches Four Scoreless In Reds Debut
6 years agoCincinnati Reds right-hander Matt Harvey made a solid debut for his new team on Friday. Traded from the New York Mets to the Reds earlier in the week, Harvey managed to pitch four scoreless innings against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday night. Harvey only threw 55 pitches due to the fact he hadn't made a start since April 19, but he still managed to allow just one hit while striking out two. In another promising sign, Harvey's fastball reached a season-high 95.8 MPH on two occasions. While it was a great debut, Harvey's move to Cincinnati is not great for his fantasy outlook as he moves from a pitcher-friendly home venue in New York to Great American Ballpark, one of the most hitter-friendly stadiums in the league. Fantasy gamers should be in wait-and-see mode with Harvey before they commit to dropping anyone of substance to add him.
