Alright folks, here's the scoop. Alex Rodriguez, or A-Rod as many of us know him, joined ABC’s Good Morning America just over a year ago. But guess what? It looks like his time on the morning show is coming to an end. His spokesperson recently confirmed the news to The Post, and let me tell you, it’s got people talking.
A-Rod's Role on GMA: What Happened?
When Alex Rodriguez, now 43, stepped into the role of a contributor on GMA, everyone was excited to see what he'd bring to the table. His plan was to cover sports, personal fitness, and finance — topics where he has plenty of experience. But here's the thing: he didn’t leave much of a mark on the show. Some insiders are saying it’s because his schedule is packed. Between his commitments on ESPN’s Sunday Night Baseball and his upcoming role on Fox’s post-season studio coverage, it seems like A-Rod had his hands full.
Now, let's take a moment to appreciate the man's hustle. A-Rod is all over the place, bringing his expertise to various platforms. But sometimes, even the best of us can't be everywhere at once, and that seems to be the case here.

Michael Strahan's Shadow: A-Rod's Limited Space
Sources close to the situation also mentioned something interesting. With Michael Strahan, the former NFL star, being the main face of the show, there wasn’t much room for A-Rod to shine. If there were sports segments, Michael could handle them himself. Here's the twist though: Michael is also an executive producer on A-Rod’s CNBC show, Back in the Game. So, despite the tension, it seems like they’ll continue working together in some capacity.
The Underlying Tension Between A-Rod and Michael
But let’s not sugarcoat it. There might be some friction between these two. Reports suggest that Michael wasn’t thrilled about A-Rod joining GMA in the first place. According to Life & Style, Michael “loves being the resident jock” on the morning show and felt threatened by A-Rod’s presence. “Michael can’t believe Alex is joining GMA. He fears that Alex is being groomed to take over his job or someone else’s on the show, and he’s upset about that,” an insider revealed.
Adding fuel to the fire, Michael reportedly only learned about A-Rod’s hiring shortly before it was publicly announced. “Michael thought that after all the drama he went through with Kelly Ripa when he left Live, there would be no more surprises. But then this happens!” the insider added.
