Alex Rodriguez took his final walk in the ballpark in 2016, 22 seasons after making his MLB debut with the Seattle Mariners in 1994. Following his retirement, A-Rod shifted his entire attention to A-Rod Corp, a holding investment company founded by him in 1996. In 2020, he first displayed interest in owning a team.
