Alex Rodriguez has been one of the highest-paid players to come out of the MLB. Despite his bad decisions in the past, his skills as a shortstop were unquestionable. Now that he’s retired, Rodriguez has taken up other interests, like looking after his business ventures and being a media personality. In addition to owning the real estate organization A-Rod Corp, Rodriguez also appears as a broadcaster on FOX Sports 1.

While he’s constantly in the news for his sometimes bizarre comments, A-Rod is also active on social media about current news in the baseball world.

Correa, who has been in talks with various MLB teams, ultimately ended up joining the Minnesota Twins, a team he had worked with before but opted out of the contract after one season.

And Alex Rodriguez had something to say to Correa after his new deal.
