Ivan Rodriguez Booking Agent Details

Ivan Rodriguez, affectionately nicknamed “Pudge”, played catcher in the majors for 21 seasons with the Texas Rangers (1991-2002, 2009), Florida Marlins (2003), Detroit Tigers (2004-2008), New York Yankees (2008), Houston Astros (2009) and Washington Nationals (2010-2011). Rodriguez was a model of consistency behind the plate as evidenced by him being named to 14 All-Star teams and winning 13 Gold Gloves. He also won 7 Silver Slugger Awards for his offensive play and was named Most Valuable Player of the American League in 1999 after setting a single season record for home runs by an AL catcher with 35. He was the first catcher to receive the honor since Thurman Munson won the award in 1976.

While with the Marlins in 2003, Rodriguez played an integral role in the team’s winning its first World Series title. During their run up to the Fall Classic, Rodriguez set numerous franchise offensive single-season marks at the catcher position and was named MVP of the NLCS. The Rangers retired his jersey #7 in 2017 and he is a member of the Rangers Hall of Fame and Nationals Ring of Honor. In 2017, Rodriguez was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame along with fellow players Tim Raines and Jeff Bagwell. Rodriguez was born on November 27, 1971 in Manati, Puerto Rico. He was signed by the Rangers at the age of 16 in 1988 and made his MLB debut on June 20, 1991. In 2017, he was named a shadow member to represent Puerto Rico in the U.S. House of Representatives.
