Matt Harvey will be limited in the playoffs after the Mets went to war with super-agent Scott Boras

Just as things were rolling for the New York Mets, the team hit a snag when they got into a spat with super-agent Scott Broas over star pitcher Matt Harvey's future.
During an interview with CBS's Jon Heyman, Boras said that Harvey was given a doctor-imposed limit of 180 innings this season in his first year back from Tommy John surgery. With 166 innings already under his belt, that would mean Harvey had about two more starts left this season.On the verge of their first playoff berth since 2006, Mets GM Sandy Alderson scoffed at the idea, saying the team may sit Harvey for a start to keep him fresh for the playoffs.
Alderson added that they weren't going to let Boras decide how the team would use Harvey.
Harvey then stepped into the drama when he was non-committal about whether he would pitch in the playoffs, noting he generally agreed with Boras. The next day he announced via The Players Tribune that he would indeed pitch in the postseason.
