The Angels have had "preliminary talks" about keeping Francisco Rodriguez past 2008 when he would become a free agent, his agent, Paul Kinzer, said, but "it's nothing serious." "Right now we're just exploring talks and structure, but we're not close on anything," Kinzer said. "We'll see what happens. In the next couple of weeks we'll start getting more serious." "Hopefully, one of these days I'll get the same opportunity he has to get locked up," Rodriguez said. "This is the place I want to be. ... I would love to stay here for hopefully the rest of my career."
