SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. Vapormax Hvid Dame Danmark . -- Matt Harveys comeback from thoracic outlet syndrome surgery is proceeding as planned and he expects to be ready by the start of the New York Mets spring training camp in February, agent Scott Boras said Wednesday.I just saw him in New York, Boras told reporters at the MLB general managers meetings in Scottsdale. Hes throwing free and easy. Hes strong. Hes had a great deal of time to work out and focus on his body and strength. We expect him to come back and be the Matt Harvey of old.Harvey, 27, posted a 4-10 record with a 4.86 ERA before undergoing season-ending surgery in July. Dr. Robert Thompson, a vascular surgeon who specializes in thoracic outlet syndrome, removed a rib to relieve pressure on an entrapped nerve between Harveys neck and shoulder.Harvey, New Yorks first-round pick in the 2010 MLB first-year player draft, went 9-5 with a 2.27 ERA in 2013 to make the All-Star team and finish fourth in the National League Cy Young Award race. But he missed the entire 2014 season because of Tommy John surgery on his right elbow.Boras said the thoracic outlet syndrome likely contributed to Harveys lack of command with his pitches starting in spring training.I dont think theres any question, Boras said. Im not sure he could identify what the issue was. But as the season went on, he complained that the command of his pitches was not nearly the same. As this got more pronounced, he started feeling a tingling in his fingers and that really gave us the clue to send him to Dr. Thompson.Now that he has the feeling in his fingers, he has the ability to stretch out, lengthen out and get the ball off his fingertips and have the feeling he normally has to command the fastball.Harvey is one of several young Mets pitchers who will be returning from injury in 2017. Jacob deGrom underwent surgery to repair the ulnar nerve in his right elbow in September, while Steven Matz had bone spurs removed from his left elbow before the end of the season. Staff ace Noah Syndergaard and Bartolo Colon, who is now a free agent, were the only New York pitchers to start 30 games in 2016. Vapormax Plus Herre Danmark .

Rousey will put her perfect 8-0 record and hardware on the line against another undefeated fighter, 7-0 Sara McMann in the main event of UFC 170, which will be held at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas Nevada on February 22nd. RIO DE JANEIRO -- There was rain and wind, bright sunshine and gloomy clouds.Even green water.For the first time since 1992, Olympic diving was held in an outdoor facility, exposed to whatever elements -- both natural and man-made -- got thrown its way.The athletes, for the most part, seemed to adapt just fine to the ever-changing conditions.The weather conditions are always a factor when its outdoors, but its definitely still great to be able to compete outdoors for a change, said Melissa Wu of Australia. When the conditions are bad, everyone is sort of in the same boat anyway. I guess it comes down to who handles it best on the day, which is pretty much what diving is anyway. Its a real mental game.While there were some surprises along the way -- windy conditions were a big factor when a reigning world champion from powerhouse China was knocked out in the preliminaries of mens 3-meter springboard -- the results have largely followed pre-Olympic expectations.China dominated the competition again, going into Saturdays final event, mens 10-meter platform, with six of the seven gold medals.Its a nice change-up to have it outside, American Jessica Parratto said. Obviously, Rio is a beautiful place and its hot out, so its nice. Theres all kinds of weather conditions we could have, but you just have to stay focused and know that youre doing the same five dives that youve always been doing and just try not to be distracted by the elements.He Chao couldnt cope when strong winds whipped up during the springboard prelims. He balked on a pair of dives and finished 21st, one year after winning the world championship in Russia.I prepared for four years for this competition and to end it like this, I feel very disappointed, he said. It was the wind that really affected the start of my dive. We didnt train in these kinds of very windy conditions before at all.This is the first truly outdoor Olympic competition since the Barcelona Games, when diving was held at the stunning pool atop Montjuic, with its dazzling backdrop of the city below.In 1996, swimming and diving were staged at a pool in Atlanta that wasnt enclosed but did have a roof. The last four Olympics were all held inside, and the 2020 Tokyoo Olympics will feature a new indoor aquatics facility. Vapormax Dame 2020. orld governing body FINA griped about the open-air facility less than a year before Rio, arguing that changing weather conditions may influence not only the athletes performances, but more importantly their health and safety. FINA did not respond to a request for comment on its assessment of the diving competition with the end of the games approaching.There was talk of putting a temporary roof over the pool, but those plans never materialized as financially strapped Rio struggled just to get all its venues completed. At least pool was already in place, having been built for the 2007 Pan American Games.In addition to wind, the divers had to compete in light rain one day, but that didnt seem to cause any major problems. Amazingly, the biggest issue was apparently caused by human error, suddenly turning the water green in both the diving well and a larger, adjacent pool used for water polo and synchronized swimming.The bigger pool eventually was drained and filled with clear water from a practice pool, but the divers had to compete for several days in the unusual conditions. Eventually, venue workers were able to clean the water up for the final days of the competition, but not before one practice session was canceled and several divers had a few laughs. Abby Johnston of the United States dubbed it the swamp, while Germanys Patrick Hausding posted a picture on social media in which he and his teammates had tinted themselves green.I knew it was going to be an interesting Olympics, different from some of the others, American Kristian Ipsen said. Theres a lot more variables you have to deal with in comparison to an Olympics that is indoors. But overall, I felt like everyone dealt with it very well.There was even an added benefit to diving outdoors.You can get a nice tan, Parratto said.
