A-Rod might be evacuating the Mothership.
Alex Rodriguez is “closing in” on a multi-year contract with Fox Sports to remain a studio analyst with the network, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The report says the new Fox Sports contract “is said to be exclusive, meaning that the current season will be his last at ESPN.”
The 14-time All-Star has been working for both networks for the past several years.
At ESPN, Rodriguez had been the color commentator on the network’s “Sunday Night Baseball” weekly telecast.
Since last season, Rodriguez has worked with Yankees play-by-play broadcaster Michael Kay on a select series of “KayRod” simulcasts on Sunday nights on ESPN2, and has called a few other ESPN baseball games per year as an analyst.
He has been with ESPN since 2018.
Rodriguez joined Fox Sports’ MLB playoff studio coverage in 2015 and 2016 before he signed on as a full-time analyst in 2017.
The Hollywood Reporter’s story notes that Rodriguez’s new deal is “believed to be the most lucrative deal yet for an MLB analyst.”
Rodriguez works on the Fox Sports baseball coverage alongside Kevin Burkhardt and analysts David Ortiz and Derek Jeter.
Fox Sports first aired the World Series in 1996 and has done so consecutively since 2000.
The exclusive deal with Fox Sports has not been finalized, sources cautioned.
Spokespeople for Fox Sports and ESPN declined to comment to The Post for this story.
Rodriguez’s MLB career spanned from 1994-2016, with the Mariners, Rangers and Yankees.
He was a three-time American League MVP and won the 2009 World Series with the Bombers.
Rodriguez purchased the NBA’s Minnesota Timberwolves with Marc Lore, the billionaire who was formerly an executive at Walmart.
