Matt Harvey had his ankle examined by New York Mets doctors Wednesday, but insisted his mild left ankle sprain will not affect his ability to face the New York Yankees this weekend.

Harvey originally injured the ankle banging into the outfield wall while shagging fly balls during spring training.

The right-hander thought the issue with his landing leg would go away, but fluid has built up and caused discomfort between starts in recent weeks.

Harvey is 3-0 since returning from Tommy John surgery, although he has allowed seven runs in 12 innings over his past two starts.

"We're still good to for Saturday,"  he said. "I just kind of wanted to know why it wasn't getting better and what was going on. For me and the training staff, I think the best thing was to have it checked out and make sure there was no structural damage, which there isn't, and that we're good to go."
