“And Put Some Toothpaste on It” – Former Batboy for the New York Yankees Spilled Beans on the Strangest Dental Habit of the Icon Alex Rodriguez

Getting to know the smallest details about their favorite players is always a treat for the fans. Former batboy for the New York Yankees, spilled the beans about the players’ strangest habits. The secret habits included the Yankees icon, Alex Rodriguez, as well.

Luis Castillo was the batboy for the New York Yankees from 1998 to 2005. Once, he revealed whatever there was to know about the players in his memoir, “Clubhouse Confidential.”

The secrets revealed in the memoir also talked about A-Rod’s strangest habit of his toothbrush.

Did Alex Rodriguez irritate his teammates?

During the time Alex played baseball, or even after retiring, he is often considered ‘high-maintenance.’ He was considered the same when he was a Yankee, and his certain habits used to irritate his teammates.

One such strangest habit of the slugger was related to his toothbrush. Castillo revealed that he required his personal assistant to put his toothbrush on a certain part of the sink. And that it should be slightly towards the edge beside the cold water tap leaning with bristles up over the basin. 

Luis was pretty shocked when A-Rod asked him to do it but what was more shocking to him was when the athlete said, “And put some toothpaste on it.”
