Terry Collins doesn't want to use Jeurys Familia for more than one inning at a time. But until someone steps up in the eighth, the temptation might just be too great.
There is a piper to be paid, though: Collins said he had to give Familia Tuesday night off after the closer threw 11/3 innings Monday night against the Blue Jays.
Familia blew the save on a Jose Bautista home run in the ninth in the Mets' 4-3, 11-inning win. He had pitched four of the previous five days.
"There's no perfect world here," Collins said.
