The Mets and Francisco Rodriguez's agent have refuted a report in a Venezuelan newspaper that the free-agent closer has traveled to New York for a physical examination. "Unless I know nothing about it, there's no truth to it," agent Paul Kinzer said of the report. He said he had spoken with his client, who had told a reporter in Venezuela of the need for a flight for business purposes. "But it wasn't for a physical," Kinzer said. "It didn't involve this."
