• Mets' Jeurys Familia: Serves up game-winning homer

  08/14/2021 •

  Familia (6-3) took the loss Friday as the Mets fell 6-5 to the Dodgers in 10 innings, giving up two runs (one earned) on one hit and one walk in one inning without striking out a batter. With the score tied 4-4, Familia entered the game to begin the 10th inning and promptly served up a leadoff homer to Will Smith, bringing home the phantom runner as well. To run salt in the wound, the Mets were able to get one run across against Kenley Jansen in the bottom of the 10th. Familia is having a rough August, posting a 7.50 ERA, 2.00 WHIP and 5:3 K:BB through six innings across seven appearances, and his high-leverage opportunities will dry up down the stretch if he can't turn things around.

• Mets' Jeurys Familia: Collects win Sunday

  07/18/2021 •

  Familia (5-1) allowed three hits and struck out one in two scoreless innings to earn the win Sunday versus Pittsburgh. After starter Taijuan Walker managed to record only one out, the Mets turned to a de facto bullpen game. Familia worked the seventh and eighth innings, and he became the pitcher of record when the Mets took the lead in the top of the ninth. The right-hander had allowed three runs across 2.1 innings in his last two appearances, so it was encouraging to see him put together a strong outing. For the season, he's posted a 3.68 ERA, 1.57 WHIP and 32:16 K:BB through 29.1 innings while adding five holds, a save and two blown saves.

  Familia (hip) is expected to be activated from the injured list during the upcoming weekend series against the Yankees, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

  06/29/2021 •

  Familia (hip) will begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports. Familia is eligible to return from the 10-day injured list Thursday, so the Mets may have him make only one appearance for Syracuse before activating him. The right-hander was tagged for five earned runs in 3.1 innings over his final three appearances prior to landing on the IL, but he excelled in a setup role before that. Over his first 21 relief outings, Familia compiled a 1.89 ERA, five holds, two wins and one save.
