Memories of Jeurys Familia

[G-Fafif]

Goodbye, most recent pitcher to close out a pennant.

[Lefty Specialist]

Can't wait to beat him on a couple of squibs and a couple of walks. I never trusted Familia, and he's going to find out how rough Philly fans can be.



That said, Mets need more BP help.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

I liked the guy. I mean he was pretty good, especially in the beginning

[kcmets]

Good luck with that! How many ding dongs will he give up in Philly before

Memorial Day? I'll kinda miss him, I mean he was a Met for like a decade.

Time flies, and so do meatballs...

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Eh he's a groundball-strikeout guy

[kcmets]

Gave up ten ding dongs last year in a little less than 60 innings.



Mel Rojas is his #1 Sim Score guy on bbrdotcom lol...

[Fman99]

He'll get a nice round of applause I would think in his first appearance in the Citi as a visitor. You know, then, again, once he gives up that nine run HR that's his trademark.

[ashie62]

He was a good Met.

[TransMonk]

I remember him being pretty automatic during the 2015 regular season.

[Benjamin Grimm]

He was incredible in 2015.



I'm looking forward to hearing if the Phillies announcers call him Jay-or-Reese.

[Edgy MD]

Had some successful outings after returning from Oakland, but I almost never saw his confidence return. And his splitter seemed like almost entirely a forgotten pitch.

There wasn't much memorable about his second tenure. For 3 years and $30M, we had the right to hope for him being better than OK. But at least he was OK, most of the time. He also seemed like a likeable guy.

[Edgy MD]

Maybe the best way to remember Familia is through the lens of Betances.
