Prospect Pulse: Familia Answers Critics

Over the last two weeks I have seen my fill of criticism about Jeurys Familia. For some reason it seems as if Mets fans and bloggers want this guy to fail. Either that, or they are just trying to make themselves look smart by pointing out his short-comings, and predicting limited success for him as a major league prospect. The negative sooth-sayers are predicting at-best that Family...

Top 10 Mets Prospects of 2012: #3 Jeurys Familia

3. Jeurys Familia, Pitcher, Bats: R, Throws: R, Age: 22, ETA: 2012 It is only a matter of time before Jeurys Familia finds a home on the Mets 25-man roster. The 22-year old right-handed starter is arguably the hardest thrower the Mets have stashed in the farm system.  His fastball has been clocked in as fast as 97 mph. Now that the team has inked Jon Niese to a five-year deal, they...

Mets Pitchers Matt Harvey and Jeurys Familia among the first eleven cut

They may have expected the news, but that did not make it any less disappointing for Mets top pitching prospects Matt Harvey and Jeurys Familia. Harvey and Familia were among 11 players in the first round of cuts from big league camp Thursday morning. "I'm not happy about it," Harvey said. "But I can't make the decision, so I'm going to go out there...

Wheeler, Harvey, and Familia all make MLB.com’s ‘Top 100 Prospects’ list

There hasn’t been much exciting news this offseason for the New York Mets and depending on how you analyze MLB.com’s ‘Top 100 Prospects’ list, your expectations may fall short.  The bad news is that the Mets don’t have a prospect listed in Jonathan Mayo’s top 20 and only three players in the organization cracked the top 100.  The good news, from...

Should Jeurys Familia be traded...

Photo by Michael BaronYou should trade from an area of depth and while the players value has peaked. Jeury's Familia maybe in that exact position right now in his career. I don't expect the big four to be in the Mets rotation in 2-3 years, the odds against that happening are astronomical. I'm confident that Wheeler and Harvey, barring injury are going to land at the...

Anything to worry about with Familia's delivery...

Photo by Michael Baron The Mets once had Generation K, three widely vaunted pitching prospects who fans hoped would anchor the rotation for years to come. Many people forget that Bobby Jones was a 1st round pick who also came up with Jason Isringhausen, Paul Wilson and Bill Pulsipher. Aside from Jones who isn't even mentioned in the group the other three never became staples...

MMO Mets Top 20 Prospects – #2 Jeurys Familia, RHP

The Mets signed Jeurys Familia as an IFA in July of 2007, as a 17-year-old out of the Dominican Republic. That will go down as a very important signing to the Mets and their fans. Although he is still in need of some consistency regarding his mechanics, and refining his change-up will be crucial for him to remain a starting pitcher, there are very few critics that don’t see...
