Matt Harvey was once considered the top pitching prospect for the Mets. He came up in 2012, and struggled to a 3-7 finish. The next season was not that impressive either at 13-13, then he blew out his arm to miss the entire 2014 season. He did bounce back for his best year in 2015 finishing 19-14, but once again struggled last season at 6-11. The Phillies have beaten him two of the last three times they have faced him. The Phillies hope to get Clay Buchholz back into the form he once showed in a Red Sox uniform, and he has won five of his last eight starts. This is a matchup of pitchers once thought to be an aces at the top of the rotation, but both have disappointed. Buchholz may thrive away from Boston, and I like his upside here in this contest. Make the play on Philadelphia.
