Jeurys Familia was a former All-Star closer for the New York Mets, who the Mets brought in to bolster their bullpen. He returned as a setup man for Edwin Diaz, but the plan did not work out very well. Familia struggled mightily in his Mets return and was stuck in a funk all season.

Familia was dominant through his first four scoreless outings. He hit a wall against the Nationals, and it was all downhill from there. Familia allowed 11 runs in his next ten outings and walked an astounding 11 batters as well.
