ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (CBSNewYork/AP) — 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.
