SLACKISH REACTION: Matt “Harv” Harvey (“The Next Seaver”) increased his career record to 34-32, but Wins are a stupid stat anyway whether it’s 34-32 or 311-205, I think we can agree that Wins depend on your offense – and the offense gave Matt his usual 7 or 8 runs of support (see Houston) and The Dark Knight pitched amazingly OK enough to get one of those prized Wins! Here’s what the Post had to say..
lasting five innings and surrendering only two runs in a 7-2 victory over the Reds at Citi Field represented progress for the beleaguered right-hander.
So I don’t know if the late night talk shows will have TDK on to talk about the supermodels he’s banging, but surely 2 runs in 5 innings is good enough to get on NJ101.5 to discuss girls he dated in college.
A baseball team going nowhere continues to embarrass itself by putting players in crowns.

Speaking of Franchise Players, the other great Met (the three are Harv, Seaver and Wright) was around yesterday and NO HE DOESN’T WANT TO MANAGE THE METS (told you) and is still trying to come back even though at this point nobody believes it will happen but we’re all too nice to say it and even DW knows it deep down and says he just wants to play catch with his kids. Yuck. Why can’t we ever have nice things like David Wright.
Wilmer Flores is out for the year.
Lugo, Flexen and Ace Montero are your next three pitchers!
Mets fans are Hashtag Loyal, and there were no fake phony fans who rooted for the team starting in August 2015. However we get the last laugh because those people now have useless Yankees #99 jerseys. Anyway, the real fans showed up for Harv Day and let me know when the boycott nonsense starts again (aka frontrunners making excuses). “21,274” for Harv Day.
