Alex Rodriguez looking to build on 'Cinderella-type season'

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Alex Rodriguez says he has started baseball activities in preparation for what he hopes will be another good season.

The 40-year old New York Yankees slugger is coming off a remarkable comeback in 2015 when he hit .250 with 33 homers and 86 RBIs after missing all of the previous year because of a season-long MLB suspension.

"A Cinderella-type season," Rodriguez said Tuesday. "In so many ways a dream season. I'm just so fortunate to be back, and be welcomed by, obviously, the Steinbrenners, all my teammates, the fans of New York. I'm look forward to building on that.
