	In 1993, Alex Rodriguez was the best high school player ~~in the nation~~ and was expected to be chosen first overall by Seattle in the MLB Draft. That ~~Summer A-Rod~~ became the first high school player to tryout ~~for~~ the USA ~~Baseball~~ National Team~~, and~~ was ~~offered a spot on~~ the ~~team~~. As part of USA Baseball's sponsorship agreement with Topps, if A-~~Rod joined~~ Team ~~USA his~~ first (and only) true rookie card would have been included in ~~1993~~ Topps Traded.		In 1993, Alex Rodriguez was the widely considered America's best high school baseball player and was expected to be chosen first overall by the Seattle Mariners in the MLB Draft (which he was). That Spring, Rodriguez became the first high school player to tryout and be offered a spot on the USA National Team -- which was usually reserved for the nation's best collegiate amateurs. As part of USA Baseball's sponsorship agreement with Topps, if Rodriguez agreed to join the National Team, Topps would have the right to issue a Rodriguez trading card -- along with the rest of the U.S. National Team -- meaning, Rodriguez's first (and only) Major League true rookie card would have been included in that year's Topps Traded.

	Under the advice of his agent, Scott Boras, who wanted to negotiate a more lucrative trading card contract, Rodriguez declined USA Baseball's offer. ~~A-Rod~~ then signed an exclusive deal with draft pick and Minor League card maker Classic. When ~~A-Rod~~ made his Major League debut the following year, Donruss, Fleer, Pacific, Pinnacle, and Upper Deck all were able to issue true rookie cards~~; however~~, ~~A-Rod~~ did not ~~sign with Topps~~ until 1998.		Under the advice of his agent Scott Boras (who wanted to negotiate a more lucrative trading card contract), Rodriguez declined USA Baseball's offer. Rodriguez then signed an exclusive deal with draft pick and Minor League card maker Classic. When Rodriguez made his Major League debut the following year, Donruss, Fleer, Pacific, Pinnacle Brands, and Upper Deck all were able to issue true rookie cards. Topps, which unlike their competitors, did not subscribe to the MLBPA's Group Licensing Agreement and signed players to individual contracts, did not issue their first Alex Rodriguez card until 1998.
