?I Don?t Vote So…?- Yankees Legend Derek Jeter Plays Coy on Whether Alex Rodriguez Should Be Inducted Into MLB Hall of Fame Following PEDs Controversy

Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez are two of the best players to grace the ballparks. The New York Yankees fans were fortunate enough to see them sharing the locker room for over a decade. When talking about their impact on the game, the two dominated an era in MLB.

A-Rod and Jeter started their professional career almost at the same time. Unlike Jeter, Alex Rodriguez made his major league debut with the Seattle Mariners. He also played for the Texas Rangers for three seasons. And later, he joined the Yankees, where he became a teammate of Jeter.

A-Rod was a once-in-a-lifetime player. But unlike Jeter, A-Rod?s baseball career will remain controversial for a lifetime. It?s not that he was not great in the ballparks. But the former Yankee lost the faith in his fans when MLB found him guilty in his PEDs case. And it might be the sole reason why Jeter received a well-deserved Hall of Fame induction and A-Rod did not. Talking about the same, Jeter opened up about his opinion on A-Rod?s chances to get into the MLB Hall of Fame.

Derek Jeter on Alex Rodriguez?s chances to become a Hall of Famer

If Alex Rodriguez was a once-in-lifetime player, Derek Jeter was also a generational leader. The former Yankees captain never cared for personal glories. He always prioritized his team first. And that is what makes him a special player. Considering his legacy and selfless contribution to the game, MLB inducted Jeter into the Hall of Fame in 2020.

But what about A-Rod? Will he ever become a Hall of Famer? Had he not done the mistake of using PEDs (performance-enhancing drugs) during the early days of his baseball career, he would be in the same company as Babe Ruth, Derek Jeter, Mickey Mantle, and a few more Yankees legends.

It is a pity that despite dominating MLB for over two decades; he is yet to get the honor from MLB. And for this, there is no one to blame but A-Rod himself.

Recently, in an exclusive interview with TIME, Derek Jeter shared his opinion on whether A-Rod deserves to get the Hall of Fame induction. The former Yankees captain did not give a proper answer. Instead, he said, ?I don?t vote. I don?t vote so I think it?s, time will tell.?
