 In 2017 Rodríguez will become eligible for induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame . Richard Justice of MLB.com has argued that he is " unquestionably " a Hall of Fame @-@ caliber player , writing on <unk> in 2012 that he batted better than .290 with more than 2 @,@ 500 hits , 550 doubles , 300 home runs and 1 @,@ 300 RBI , an accomplishment equaled only by four all @-@ time greats : Hank Aaron , George Brett , Babe Ruth and Barry Bonds . ( This statement was incorrect , as Stan Musial also met and far surpassed all of those numbers . Incidentally , in 2013 , the year following Justice 's publication of this article , Todd Helton had met all five of these criteria as well , and among active players , Albert Pujols joined this club in 2015 upon hitting his 550th double . ) However , Justice acknowledges that like Bonds , Rodríguez may have difficulty winning election to the Hall of Fame due to suspicion that he used steroids during his career .
