Are you buying into this nickname?

I abstain, courteously. Oh, and I'll never ever call him that.

Re: Dark Knight of Gotham

Can we get the bullpen buggy back and call it the Batmobile?

Re: Dark Knight of Gotham

A lot of hype for a guy who's won 12 games in his career, and hasn't pitched a full ML season yet.

I'm definitely not buying in to the Dark Knight thing.

Re: Dark Knight of Gotham

Sort of what I was getting at. Meh nickname yields meh results.

I worry that the 7 Line has a relatively outsized role in this sort of thing.

Re: Dark Knight of Gotham

Lets see. I lurrv the Mets. I lurrv Batman. I lurrv the nickname (agree about losing the Gotham though).

I usually refer to him as Mattman. The bullpen cart is the Mattmobile. Wheeler was Robin, but I can slip deGrom right into the cart.
Jeeze, this is years old now.

Re: Dark Knight of Gotham

When it comes to Matt Harvey, I'm ten years old and he's the best, coolest thing in the world. And I'm okay with that.

Rich douche who fucks his way through half of the Elite roster, and drops millions on oysters and cars and clothes (while not knowing how to tie a tie).

Call him what you like. I think of him as Throwin' Bruce Wayne.

Re: Dark Knight of Gotham

It's a silly, contrived name. But I don't care if he loosens his Utility Belt once in a while as long as he's mowing 'em down on the mound.

Re: Dark Knight of Gotham

I voted indifferent because there must have been something better.
Mattman does it for me.
