A-Rod's new manager has worked for Madonna, Kravitz

NEW YORK -- A-Rod is adding some Hollywood glitz to his
management team.



Alex Rodriguez hired Guy Oseary, who has worked with Madonna and
Lenny Kravitz, to be his manager. Oseary is not a registered
baseball agent, and Scott Boras remains A-Rod's representative on
baseball matters.

Rodriguez said last week he had spoken just once with Boras
since the agent notified the New York Yankees that A-Rod was opting
out of his contract. The slugger then negotiated a new $275
million, 10-year deal with the team without Boras. After the
outline of the deal was agreed to, Boras drafted the contract with
the club.

"As I embark on this new chapter in my career, I know that I
have found in Guy Oseary someone who is aligned with my interests
and who has earned a lot of respect in the entertainment industry
as a true visionary," Rodriguez said in a statement issued by
Richard Rubenstein.

Richard Rubenstein has represented A-Rod's foundation and is the
son of Yankees spokesman Howard Rubenstein.
