[Edgy MD]

Are you buying into this nickname?

Love it. I mean what's not to love?

[Ceetar]

in fact I want it to be a running joke about who's Robin.

[Guest d'Kong76]

I abstain, courteously. Oh, and I'll never ever call him that.

[Guest Mets Guy in Michigan]

Can we get the bullpen buggy back and call it the Batmobile?

[dgwphotography]

A lot of hype for a guy who's won 12 games in his career, and hasn't pitched a full ML season yet.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I'm definitely not buying in to the Dark Knight thing.

Well, that clears that up.

[metirish]

Yeah a lot of hype like DGW says.....one thing for sure, Matt has totally bought into it

[metsmarathon]

does it really need the "of gotham" part?

This totally clears it up. Most meh poll ever.

[Guest Mets � Willets Point]

Why not? It's fun. The kids will like it. And he may be an asshole, but he's our asshole.

[metsmarathon]

he's not the pitcher we need, he's the pitcher we deserve.

wait, i thought that was ollie perez...

Nah, most meh Met nickname ever.

[Edgy MD]

Sort of what I was getting at. Meh nickname yields meh results.

I worry that the 7 Line has a relatively outsized role in this sort of thing.

[Guest d'Kong76]

They have an outsized role in a lot of stuff... haha.
Gonna get an email or two for saying so!

Lets see. I lurrv the Mets. I lurrv Batman. I lurrv the nickname (agree about losing the Gotham though).

I usually refer to him as Mattman. The bullpen cart is the Mattmobile. Wheeler was Robin, but I can slip deGrom right into the cart.
Jeeze, this is years old now.

OE: & still only 35 cents!

[Guest themetfairy]

Love it, especially if it helps motivate him.

[dinosaur jesus]

When it comes to Matt Harvey, I'm ten years old and he's the best, coolest thing in the world. And I'm okay with that.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Rich douche who fucks his way through half of the Elite roster, and drops millions on oysters and cars and clothes (while not knowing how to tie a tie).

Call him what you like. I think of him as Throwin' Bruce Wayne.

[Lefty Specialist]

It's a silly, contrived name. But I don't care if he loosens his Utility Belt once in a while as long as he's mowing 'em down on the mound.

[MFS62]

I voted indifferent because there must have been something better.
Mattman does it for me.
