Three months and 80 games later, Jenrry Mejia met with reporters upon completion of his suspension and offered no insights into the cause of his positive test for a performance-enhancing substance, Stanozolol.

“Everything is in the past,” he said.The Mets immediately reinstated last year’s closer from the suspended list and had him available for duty against the San Francisco Giants. He did not get into New York’s 3-0 loss.The right-hander insists he’s ready for action. He pitched well over the course of six appearances in the minors before joining the club. Mejia said his goal is to get the Mets into the playoffs in whatever role Collins deems appropriate. For now, that will be as a setup man for the new closer, right-hander Jeurys Familia, who is 23-for-25 on save chances while posting a 1.13 ERA.
