Mets closer Jeurys Familia has been arrested and charged with simple assault in an alleged domestic violence incident, according to a report from Andrew Wyrich and Abbott Koloff of the Record.

Public judicial records suggest that the 27-year-old pitcher is alleged to have caused bodily injury to an unidentified person, with police officers stating in the filing that there was probable cause “to believe that domestic violence had occurred.” A “scratch to the chest and a bruise to the right cheek of the victim” are said to have been observed.

The incident in question occurred early Monday morning in Fort Lee, New Jersey, per the court documents. That is where Familia resides with his wife and young child, according to the report.

The Mets provided a statement to the Record on the subject, stating: “The matter was brought to our attention and we are monitoring the situation.” It is not yet clear whether Major League Baseball has been apprised of the matter, but the league has not yet commented.

Do you recommend the veal?

 

[Doug Beerabelli]

He'll never be convicted by a Jeury of his peers.

 

[BroodsSexton]

Do you recommend the veal?

The cutlet, in fact. Super tender.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Yes, try the veal

He will be the last of the Mojicas to play for the Mets.

Familia, 27, who is identified in the complaint as Jeurys F. Mojica, was charged with simple assault, a disorderly persons offense, according to the complaint. A Facebook page that appears to belong to Familia uses the name Jeurys Familia Mojica to identify him. The date of birth on the complaint matches the date of birth given for Familia on the Mets’ website.

So, he plays under his familia name?

(I get that you're joking, but) I imagine this is the same sort of Hispanophone naming convention issue that led to:

'Mr. Alderson? Brian Cashman on line 1 ...'

I'm having eye surgery in two weeks. Does that say OF?

 

[luckiestman]

I'm having eye surgery in two weeks. Does that say OF?

"Off Field"

 

[nvalvo]

I'm having eye surgery in two weeks. Does that say OF?

It does. Baseball-Reference has no record of that ever happening in a game, FWIW.

He gets 15 games
