NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — The hits keep on coming for the Mets — and not the good kind.
The Mets announced Thursday that closer Jeurys Familia has been diagnosed with an arterial clot in his right shoulder. He will undergo more tests to determine a course of action, which could include surgery.
The news comes a day after Familia blew a save in a 6-5 loss to the Giants. In that outing, he allowed four runs (three earned) on two hits and two walks while retiring just one batter.
In 11 appearances this season, Famila is 1-1 with a 3.
