Alex Rodriguez signed two lucrative sports agreements.
In February 2009, Selena Roberts and David Epstein of Sports Illustrated reported that Rodriguez had tested positive for two anabolic steroids, testosterone and Primobolan, during his 2003 season playing for the Texas Rangers, the same season in which he captured his first American League Most Valuable Player award, broke 300 career home runs (hitting 47 that year), and earned one of his ten Silver Slugger Awards
 Rodriguez played 22 seasons in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Seattle Mariners (19942000), Texas Rangers (20012003), and New York Yankees (20042016)
