Alex Rodriguez
Alex Rodriguez is one of the players where, no matter what you say, someone will come back with a remark regarding steroids, his playboy ways, or a comparison to Derek Jeter. On that note, there is no comparison.
However, when the 14-time All-Star retired, it seemed some of the talks calmed down. This had a lot to do with the phenomenal job he did during the postseason that year and the previous season as a Fox Sports analyst.
He still continues to be talked about. It’ll be interesting to see how people react when it’s Hall of Fame talks. Grab your ear plugs now.
