SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- New York Mets general manager Sandy Alderson described team officials as extremely disappointed and shocked by last weeks arrest of closer Jeurys Familia on a domestic-violence charge.Alderson added that while he preferred not to dwell on the on-field ramifications at this point, setup man Addison Reed likely would serve as the closer if Familia were required to serve an MLB-imposed suspension.Familia was arrested by Fort Lee, New Jersey, police last Monday after allegedly causing a scratch to the chest and a bruise to the right cheek of an unnamed person, whose name was redacted from the official complaint. The complaint further stated that officer Tony Pickens found probable cause to believe that domestic violence had occurred. Familia was charged with simple assault.Obviously we were extremely disappointed and frankly shocked at the allegations, Alderson said Monday, shortly after arriving at the GM meetings that kick off the hot-stove season. Of course, he hasnt had a hearing yet. So the facts are to be determined. Its not just an unfortunate situation, but a sad one for him and his family.Now, secondarily, well have to think about what impact it will have. I dont think its fully sunk in yet as to whats the impact -- simply because its not clear what exactly happened and how that will impact his availability. Not that we havent thought about it, but its not the thing that was top of mind when we heard about it. We still dont know a lot about what transpired.Alderson said the Mets do not have any information beyond the official police report. While Familia has communicated with the organization, he has not directly spoken with Alderson, according to the GM.We dont have a handle on it, Alderson said.With right-hander Fernando Salas and left-hander Jerry Blevins now free agents, Alderson noted the Mets were in the market for relief help even before Familias arrest. After being acquired from the Angels on Aug. 31, Salas served in a seventh-inning role, leading into Reed. Blevins served as the primary lefty specialist.Alderson said the potential loss of Familias services for a portion of the 2017 season does not materially change the Mets pursuit of late-inning relief help. Nor does it increase the likelihood of acquiring high-end arms.It would have been a lower-tier player, Alderson said. Would it be something higher than that at this point? Probably not. Alderson added that Robert Gsellman and Seth Lugos emergences as dependable rookies in 2016 provide a safety net for the bullpen, especially if Matt Harvey, Jacob deGrom, Noah Syndergaard, Steven Matz and Zack Wheeler are all healthy and the rotation is full -- admittedly a big if.I think we were inclined to look at some additional late-inning help before this incident occurred, Alderson said. The last two years weve gone out and got somebody in late August and its been helpful [Reed in 2015 from the Diamondbacks, Salas in 2016]. Youd like to be able to do that early on. The difficulty with going out and finding someone, unless theyre absolute blue chip, is youre not always sure year to year how theyre going to perform. So its in some ways a little easier to predict that when youre picking them up in late July or late August. You have a little bit of a track record. Even if that track record isnt uniformly positive, theres some trend lines and things you can look at.But, yes, we intended to look at our bullpen even before this incident. I might add, this is where a Gsellman or a Lugo might prove to be very valuable to us going into next season even if theyre not in the starting rotation.Wholesale Custom Jerseys Free Shipping . - The Washington Redskins have cut defensive lineman Adam Carriker and punter Sav Rocca.
