    Kenneth Eugene Harvey is a professional baseball player.

    (born March 1, 1978 in Los Angeles, California) is a first baseman and designated hitter in Major League Baseball with the Minnesota Twins organization.

    Harvey played his rookie season in Kansas City in 2003. After an impressive first half of the 2004 season, featuring an early battle with Baltimore Oriole Melvin Mora for the AL lead in batting average, Harvey was selected as the Royals' lone representative in the All-Star Game. In interleague play, the Royals played Harvey in left field in order to keep both Harvey and 1B/DH Mike Sweeney, their two most productive bats, in the lineup.

    After struggling the second half of the 2004 season, Harvey found himself battling Calvin Pickering for his roster spot the following spring. After hitting .238 in spring training, the Royals sent Harvey to their Class AAA Omaha affiliate on March 29, 2005. In 18 games at Omaha, Harvey hit .375 with three home runs and 14 RBI and was recalled less than a month later on April 28. However, after playing in only 12 games- during which he batted just .222 with five RBIs- Harvey was placed on the disabled list on May 22 due to recurring back problems. He has yet to return to the major leagues. On December 8 2006, Ken Harvey signed a minor league contract with the Minnesota Twins with an invitation to the Major League Spring Training camp.
