If there's anyone who understands what Matt Harvey is going through right now, it's Phil Hughes.
After it was announced the New York Mets' right-hander would elect to undergo surgery to address his thoracic outlet syndrome, Hughes, who underwent the surgery this week, poked fun at the matter.
Thoracic outlet syndrome is so hot right now

Hughes had a rib removed to relieve pressure on the nerves and blood vessels underneath, marking the end of his 2016 season, as well.
Despite the awful news, the Minnesota Twins right-hander is in good spirits.
Out of surgery and resting comfortably with 1 less rib than I showed up with. Thank you all for the support 🍖 pic.twitter.com/F41vi6aFKY
