3 years agoFree-agent right-hander Matt Harvey is close to a deal to return to the Baltimore Orioles. It will be a minor league deal, and the plan is for him to start at extended spring training in Florida and build up his arm. Not much should be expected of Harvey after he went 6-14 with a rough 6.27 ERA and a 1.54 ERA with 95 strikeouts and 37 walks in 127 2/3 innings over 28 starts last year in Baltimore. The 33-year-old could also be facing a suspension this year for what he admitted in court in the Tyler Skaggs trial. Harvey would only become an option in AL-only leagues if he returns to the O's starting rotation at any point this year.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
