‘Dark Knight’ could thrive outside of NY shadow

Cincinnati could be a positive place for Matt Harvey, a situation where he can work his way back to his previous form — after an extremely serious surgery — in peace, without every start a referendum on his status as a human being and social icon. He’ll be a free agent after the season, and he can build up his value in a place where the temperature is lower. Come this fall, he’ll be able to, for the first time in his career, choose where he wants to pitch.
