A-Rod Stands To Lose Millions In Divorce

[dNYCE]

If A-Rod's estranged wife files for divorce, she could claim half of his vast fortune — as well as their three opulent homes and private jet, experts say.

"He'll be working on her farm team for the next couple of years," famed divorce lawyer Raul Felder said.

Baring an ironclad prenuptial agreement, Cynthia Rodriguez "has an excellent argument" that the Yankee slugger reached his celebrity zenith in their five years of marriage.

"You're going to need armies of accountants here because somebody has to compute what the celebrity status is worth," Felder said. "When we look back it may turn out that she ends up with more than half."

And what a half it is:

A-Rod earns about $29 million a year from the Yankees, more than the entire payroll of the Florida Marlins. He makes an additional $6 million annually in commercial endorsements. Sports Illustrated has estimated he'll make $445 million over the course of what would be a 24-year baseball career at the end of his newly inked $275 million, 10-year contract with the Bombers.

A-Rod and his wife own a $12 million, 8,310-square-foot mansion near Coral Gables, Fla., and recently bought a $13.5 million penthouse on the upper East Side.
The reigning American League MVP owns millions of dollars in rental properties in New York and Florida. He also owns a 22-seat Gulfstream jet worth more than $30 million.
Divorce experts also said Rodriguez could wind up paying a heavy chunk of his income on child support for the couple's two children, 3-year-old Natasha and 10-week-old Ella Alexander.

Come on now half of that still makes you rich as hell I don't see how it's a big deal. Not like he is really deserving of a lot of that money since he stinks it up in the playoffs each year. I find it funny how last year when he had that big contract on the line he comes through so often but this year after he gets the contract he has been average..
