Mets manager Terry Collins revealed his pitching rotation for the 2015 World Series on Sunday. Contrary to previous reports from Buster Olney -- which had Jacob deGrom starting Game 1 -- Matt Harvey will take the mound at Kauffman Stadium on Tuesday.
3 Places Daniel Murphy Could Land Next Season
Three guesses where super agent Scott Boras can stick that insurance policy he secured before the season to protect Harvey.
Game 2 will belong to deGrom. Noah Syndergaard and Steven Matz will pitch Games 3 and 4, respectively.

Boras, however, will not be the only one displeased with the news.
Jacob deGrom should be pitching Game One, but whatever. #Mets

@_mistermet Picking Harvey over deGrom for Game 1 knocks the Mets odds down from -34% to -57%, according to PECOTA.

Boras can rest easy in this regard: should the series extend to a seventh game, it would be Syndergaard that takes the mound, not Harvey.
