NEW YORK -- Alex Rodriguez, once again, wants to be like Derek Jeter.
A-Rod and fiancee Jennifer Lopez have retained J.P. Morgan to represent them in raising capital for a possible bid for the New York Mets, according to multiple reports.
The move was first reported by Variety.
A three-time AL MVP, Rodriguez retired in August 2016 with 698 home runs, a .295 average and 2,086 RBI in 22 years. He was suspended for the 2014 season for violations of Major League Baseball's drug agreement and labor contract.
A-Rod, now 44 years old, earned about $448 million as a player.
