HBT: Yanks' Cano fires agent Boras, hires Jay-Z

Robinson Cano is six months from hitting the open market as a free agent and cashing in for a huge long-term contract, and Buster Olney of ESPN.com reports that the Yankees second baseman just fired his agent, Scott Boras.

Cano is making $15 million this year in the final season of a deal signed in February of 2008 and should top $100 million with ease this offseason (or before then, if he agrees to a pre-free agency contract with the Yankees).

Back in 2011 he fired his old agent and hired Boras, but Cano must not have been happy with how negotiations have been going. No word yet on Cano?s new representation, but Olney writes that he ?has quietly been meeting with other agents in recent weeks to discuss a possible switch.?

UPDATE: Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com reports that Cano is joining CAA ?in part because of affiliation with Roc Nation, an entertainment/marketing company founded by Jay-Z.?

UPDATE #2: I guess that?s official now ?
