??9 in the Morning. You Were There Till Midnight?- Alex Rodriguez Gushes Over Derek Jeter?s Stint as Marlins CEO; Shockingly Claims He Built Championship Team

Alex Rodriguez and Derek Jeter were teammates at the New York Yankees. Post-retirement, Jeter became the CEO and joint owner of the Miami Marlins. Jeter’s reign as a CEO wasn’t quite successful. But ‘A-Rod’ has different opinions on the topic.?

Jeter is a Hall Of Fame inductee. He is a five-time World Series champion with the Yankees. ‘A-Rod’ also was a member of the Yankees team that won the World Series in 2009. So, according to ‘A-Rod’, Jeter was an equally successful CEO, just as much as a champion player.?

Alex Rodriguez: In praise of Derek Jeter the CEO?

Alex ‘A-Rod’ Rodriguez and Derek Jeter got recently invited to the ‘KayRod Cast’ podcast. Famous American sports broadcaster Michael Kay hosts the talk show. Many world-renowned sports personalities grace the talk show. Likewise, so did ‘A-Rod’ and Jeter.?

Bidding farewell to his glorious playing tenure in 2014, Jeter joined the Marlins’ ownership group in 2017. He was briefly the CEO and co-owner of the franchise. However, his administration was a failure. Therefore, after a brief and unsuccessful stint, he left the role in 2022.?

But ‘A-Rod’ still holds Jeter in high regard as a CEO. Talking on the ‘KayRod Cast’, Rodriguez said,?“I can speak from being a local in Miami. I don’t think, and I said this publicly many times, that Derek has got enough credit for the job he’s done. He did an incredible job with that firm system, their setup to win. If you spend a little bit of money now, they can make a run and even win a championship.”?

Then talking straight to Jeter, Rodriguez added,?“But I thought it was great the way you went around the community. You gave back to the community. But people don’t realize you were there 9 in the morning. You were there till midnight, raising girls. So again, I don’t think people appreciate on the ownership side. It’s just as hard as playing, probably harder.”?

The lives post-retirement of Rodriguez and Jeter

‘A-Rod’ is now a successful entrepreneur as well as a broadcaster. He is the CEO of A-Rod Corp and Presidente Beer. He is also the co-owner of the NBA team, Minnesota Timberwolves. On the other hand, Jeter is a happily married man raising three daughters with his supermodel wife.?
