‘His stuff is really good’: Red Sox add veteran Jeurys Familia to bolster bullpen

The Red Sox selected right-handed pitcher Jeurys Familia to their active Major League roster, the club announced Saturday.

Familia, 32, has a 33-26 record, 3.46 ERA, and 125 saves in over 11 years in the Majors. He spent six years with the New York Mets, played for the Oakland Athletics briefly in 2018, then returned to the Mets for three more seasons.

He appeared in 38 games for the Philadelphia Phillies this year, posting a 1-1 record and 6.09 ERA before they designated him for assignment.

The Red Sox signed Familia as a minor league free agent on Tuesday.
