The Angels "haven't said anything to me" about a long-term deal since January, Francisco Rodriguez said Thursday. Stoneman said he would not comment on negotiations, except to reiterate he still is open to discussing a new deal with Rodriguez.
In Shields and Justin Speier, the Angels have two setup men ? and potential closers ? signed through 2010, for $18 million each.
"Everyone's dream is to have a multiyear contract," Rodriguez said. "You want to secure your family. If it's not going to be this ballclub, it's going to be another ballclub."
