Mets manager Terry Collins disputes a report that he said Johan Santana would be his Opening Day starter. "I have said from the beginning he is on schedule to start Opening Day. I never said he was going to pitch,'' Collins said. ''Right now, as we get through spring training, we may have to make adjustments.'' Collins confirmed Santana will not begin the year on the disabled list. The Mets' current discussion is whether he'll appear in the first game of the regular season.
