Mets' Jeurys Familia: Likely headed to Oakland

Familia is expected to be dealt to the Athletics within the next few days, Buster Olney of ESPN reports.

Analysis:

Although the Mets won't announce the trade Friday night, the deal could be finalized as soon as Saturday. The Athletics already have a dominant closer in Blake Treinen, but they'll look to bolster their bullpen as Familia has put up solid numbers in 2018. The 28-year-old has collected 17 saves and sits with a 2.88 ERA and 1.23 WHIP with 43 strikeouts across 40.2 innings. More details on the trade will likely emerge in the near future.
