Met’s all star closer Francisco Rodriguez was arraigned on assault charges this morning, stemming from an altercation he had with his father in law after the game on Wednesday night. The victim’s name was not released by police, but he has accused the 28 year old right hander of punching him in the face.

There is no information regarding what the argument was about, but it’s not the first time Rodriguez has been in a physical altercation this season. Earlier in the season, he got in a shoving match with bullpen coach Randy Niemann.

The Mets currently hold an option on the contract of Rodriguez for next season, but now seem unlikely to offer him a long term contract extension.

Rodriguez is 4-2 with a 2.24 ERA and 25 saves this season.
