Alex Rodriguez is one of the most talented and controversial baseball players of our generation. The forty-year-old broke onto the scene with the Seattle Mariners back in 1994, producing like a Hall-of-Famer for fifteen years. Over his lifetime, A-Rod has surpassed the 3,000 hit mark, the 600 home run mark, and has driven in more than 2,000 runs. Unfortunately, the shortstop’s gaudy numbers were buoyed by multiple performance enhancing drugs (PED’s), and he’ll forever have an asterisk by his name in the record books. In the twilight of his career, A-Rod will attempt to leave the game respectfully, leaving a positive impact on both his teammates and the next generation of young, great shortstops.
