Familia experiencing familiar arm tightness

After giving up five runs in an inning in Thursday’s 8-5 loss to the Nationals, Mets closer Jeurys Familia said he is dealing with a bout of arm tightness that afflicts him every year around this time. A notoriously slow starter in spring, Familia often sits in the low 90s with his fastball until the end of March, at which point he ramps his offerings up closer to triple digits.
