A-Rod to opt out of contract
Boras notifies Yankees of client's free-agent wishes

DENVER -- Alex Rodriguez notified the Yankees on Sunday that he's opting out
of his record $252 million contract, SI.com has learned.

Rodriguez's decision means he will become a free agent and be able to
negotiate with all clubs. Rodriguez's bombshell move will shake up the
entire winter for the Yankees -- who had hoped to retain him with a big
extension -- as well as other big-market clubs that will now pursue him.

Rodriguez's agent Scott Boras said he sent word of the opt-out in writing
Sunday and left phone and text messages for Yankees general manager Brian
Cashman. The Yankees have said that once A-Rod opts out, they wil not pursue
him, since they will lose the benefit of the Texas Rangers' $30-million
subsidy.

"Alex made the decision today,'' Boras said. "I thought we should notify the
club.''

The Yankees were preparing an extension to his current contract for either
five or six years, believed to be for close to $30 million annually. However,
team officials said Boras has politely declined to meet with them in recent
days, and they never presented the offer.

Rodriguez technically had until 10 days after the World Series ended to
exercise his opt-out rights, which were provided in his $252 million Texas
deal. However, Boras said Rodriguez felt there was no way he could make a
decision to stay in that short a period of time since several situations
remain unsettled, including those of Mariano Rivera, Jorge Posada and
Andy Pettitte.
