Alex Rodriguez

Alex Rodriguez has no plans to play professional baseball again — at least in 2016.

On Monday, Rodriguez’s spokesman Ron Berkowitz released a statement putting to rest any speculation about A-Rod signing with the Miami Marlins or any other MLB team.

With A-Rod’s Yankees playing career officially over and Miami having lost Giancarlo Stanton for the season to an injury, the Marlins admitted they would explore the possibility of signing the 41-year-old. One reporter even insisted the union was going to happen.

While A-Rod is one of the best players in MLB history, it’s clear his best days are behind him. He’s only hitting .200 this season and was hardly getting playing time on a mediocre Yankees team, which led to a small rift with his former manager in Rodriguez’s final week. There’s no reason to think A-Rod would make the Marlins or any other team better given the way he has played.
