Mets closer Francisco Rodriguez is in talks with agent Scott Boras. Rodriguez could become a free agent this winter if his contract option for 2012 does not vest. The reliever met with the agent and two associates both before and after the team's game on Thursday. Rodriguez has asked other Boras clients on the Mets whether they would recommend him as an agent, according to a person familiar with the situation. He declined to say whether he was considering dumping agent Paul Kinzer in favor of Boras.
