Mets' Closer Frank Francisco to Have M.R.I. Test on Knee April 2, 2012, 4:00 pm LUCIE, Fla. - Closer Frank Francisco said he planned to have a magnetic resonance imaging test on his left knee Monday night. Francisco, who joined the Mets on a two-year, $12 million contract over the winter, said he had some recurring soreness in the knee since the start of camp. "The last game I pitched, in the first inning, it was fine," Francisco said of his two-inning appearance Saturday. Then when I sat on the bench, resting for the next inning, it felt like it got cold a little bit, and I didn't feel like it was right. So I told them. He said he had fluid drained from the knee Sunday. He went through his normal workout Monday. "I don't feel pain or anything," he said. Francisco has struggled this spring, allowing 9 runs in 13 innings. But Manager Terry Collins has said repeatedly that he is not worried about Francisco and that he expects his performances to improve as soon as he begins to pitch in games that count.
