The wife of the highest paid MLB player this season is about to cash out. Cynthia Rodriguez, wife of New York Yankees All-Star Alex Rodriguez, filed for divorce today and is seeking primary custody of their two children.

Over the weekend, Cynthia accused Alex of being "brainwashed" by Madonna and her Kabbalah ways and also said her husband was having an affair with the Material Girl.

One of Cynthia's lawyers, Maurice Kutner, told the Post that the grounds for divorce are a "long period of infidelity on the part of Mr. Rodriguez" and "emotional abandonment."

For his part, A-Rod is accusing Cynthia of not wanting to reconcile.

And -- to add more drama to the pot, Madonna issued her own statement, telling People, "My husband and I are not planning on getting a divorce. I know Alex Rodriguez through Guy Oseary, who manages both of us. I brought my kids to a Yankee game. I am not romantically involved in any way with Alex Rodriguez. I have nothing to do with the state of his marriage or what spiritual path he may choose to study."

Cynthia is seeking a large settlement to support her lavish lifestyle. According to the divorce filing, Cynthia wants sole ownership of the couple’s Cora Gables, Fla., home, and claims she is entitled to "an equitable distribution of all assets acquired during the marriage."

She also wants sole custody of their two children as well as alimony and child support.

A-Rod is in the midst of a $252 million 10-year deal with the Yankees.
