Matt Harvey to make next start

Mets RHP Matt Harvey will make his next scheduled start against the Chicago White Sox on Monday. Harvey was told he would pitch on Monday  earlier this morning in a meeting in manager Terry Collins's office. Pitching coach Dan Warthen and assistant GM were also at the meeting. Collins said that the team noticed Harvey took some positive steps last night. One of them was his increased velocity with his fastball ranging from 95-96 mph and topping out at 97 mph. Collins and the front office also liked Harvey's command of his slider.
