Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez has confirmed reports that he has parted ways with longtime agent Scott Boras.

"Scott and I had a good run," Rodriguez said. "Nothing drastic happened, but at this point in my career, my goal is to finish as a New York Yankee and be a world champion again. And some of the things I needed 20 years ago I really don't need now."

According to a Sports Illustrated report, Rodriguez fired Boras in a letter more than a month ago.

Boras negotiated Rodriguez's $252 million, 10-year contract with the Texas Rangers in 2001.
