Harvey was adamant. It was not about wanting to be in Manhattan, where he is frequently seen at Rangers games and out with attractive women, he told the Daily News this spring. He said he planned on being a big part of this team going forward, a leader. He wanted to bond with fellow young pitchers as they came up, he wanted to get to know catcher Travis d'Arnaud and he felt like he deserved to still be a part of the team even though he was injured. "I have worked so hard to get to the big leagues and be with this team. It just felt like all of a sudden I was shooed to the back," Harvey told The News' Andy Martino at the time.
