Veteran right-handed pitcher Matt Harvey has agreed to a minor league deal with the Oakland Athletics, according to multiple reports.
Harvey, 30, was designated for assignment last month by the Los Angeles Angels, with whom he signed a one-year, $11 million deal before the season.
Harvey was 3-5 with a 7.09 ERA in 12 starts for the Angels in 2019.
Once dubbed “The Dark Knight,” Harvey was among baseball’s most dominant starters for a time with the New York Mets. He started the 2013 All-Star Game at Citi Field but hurt his elbow later that summer and never consistently regained his 98 mph fastball or command following Tommy John surgery.
