Familia was released by the Athletics on May 6. Familia was designated for assignment by Oakland in early May and was cut loose by the organization a couple days later. The 33-year-old recorded two saves and one hold in 14 appearances with a 6.39 ERA, 2.05 WHIP and 9:13 K:BB over 12.2 innings.

Familia was designated for assignment by the Athletics on Thursday. Familia actually leads the A's with two saves this season, but he also has a 6.39 ERA and hideous 9:13 K:BB over 12.2 innings. The veteran reliever will undoubtedly clear waivers and is probably looking at a minor-league deal for his next contract.

Familia (0-1) took the loss and blew the save against the Reds on Saturday, allowing two runs on two hits and two walks over one inning. He struck out two. Familia was handed the ball with Oakland clinging to a one-run lead in the ninth inning, but he couldn't get the job done. The right-hander allowed three of the first five batters he faced to reach base -- two by walk -- and saw the lead disappear when Jake Fraley tagged him for a two-out, two-run double. Familia had notched a save in two of his previous three outings coming into Saturday, so he's likely still going to see chances to close. However, he's posted a poor 6.57 ERA and 8:12 K:BB on the campaign, and given that the A's have started with an ugly 5-28 record, Familia is likely the least desirable closer in the game for fantasy purposes.

Familia allowed two runs (one earned) on two hits and a walk in one inning against the Angels on Monday. He struck out one and earned a save. Familia was brought in to protect a three-run lead in the 10th inning and narrowly made it out. He served up a two-run homer to Brandon Drury but eventually retired Mike Trout with two runners on base to finish off the 11-10 win. Familia has converted two of his three save chances this season while posting a 5.73 ERA across 11 innings.

Familia earned a save over Texas on Friday while walking one batter in a scoreless inning. Familia worked around a leadoff walk to close out the 5-4 victory. It was his first save of the season and his first opportunity since April 12. His third straight scoreless outing lowered his season ERA to 5.40 with a 4:8 K:BB through 10 innings.
