New York Mets star Matt Harvey is having quite the year. He is the most talked about, and possibly greatest, pitcher in the MLB right now, just made the All Star team, is dating crazy hot supermodel Anne Vyalitsyna and now he has stripped down for ESPN The Magazine's annual Body Issue. And he looks fantastic.

We have got to start watching more baseball.

As good as Harvey may look however, he admitted to the Daily News that he wasn't so sure about the shoot initially. "It was kind of nerve-racking at first," he explained. "I've never been fully nude in front of random people like that before - especially with a camera around. But now that it is all done, it was a fun experience."

We too are very much enjoying this experience Matt.

Now, we realize we should close out with some sort of pitcher joke here, but we can't think of anything that isn't too obvious. Feel free to leave your suggestions in the comments below.

Oh, and you can check out more of Matt, if there is any more to check out, in ESPN The Magazine.
