In 2000, the former shortstop signed a 10-year contract with the Texas Rangers for a record-breaking $252 million. By 2004, however, Rodriguez was traded to the New York Yankees, where he was named the American League’s Most Valuable Player in both 2005 and 2007. The title earned him a new 10-year $275 million contract with the Yankees following the 2007 season, beating out the record set by his previous contract.
According to Celebrity Net Worth, this earned the MLB star a salary of $33 million per year at the height of his career. All in all, Rodriguez made $441 million total from his salary over the course of his baseball career.
