Matt Harvey is literally Rick Vaughn from Major League. Right now he's in Major League 2. He needs to put his Wild Thing glasses back on

Following the shortest start of his career, Harvey's ERA rose to a career-worst 5.77 in a season the right-hander has been discouraged by thus far.
"It's frustrating. I think I've said it before: I'm the one who is most frustrated here about what's going on. It's been a frustrating start, but we have a long way to go," Harvey said in early May of the poor beginning to his season.
