Mets GM Sandy Alderson suggested ace right-hander Matt Harvey may be skipped multiple times in September but offered no firm resolution on how much he will pitch.

As the Mets prepared to open a three-game showdown against the Nationals on Monday, Alderson indicated that he had spoken with Dr. James Andrews, and Harvey and has a call into agent Scott Boras.

But Alderson added that a pitching plan for Harvey had not yet been cemented among the parties.
