Why is Alex Rodriguez Not in MLB The Show?
Licensing is tricky and expensive! If A-Rod's not in MLB The Show, it's probably because they couldn't secure his rights.

I miss A-Rod too! Basically, if a player doesn't agree to be a part of the MLBPA's licensing deal, they won't be in the game. Happens a lot with retired stars.
Honestly, who needs A-Rod when you can crush homers with today's stars?
A-Rod's absence usually comes down to licensing issues. If he doesn't have a deal with MLB or the Players' Association, he won't appear in the game.
From what I've read, it's all about those licensing agreements. No deal, no A-Rod in the game.
