MLB stars are certainly among the wealthier population of the world. Being a sports star often involves living the high life. High-end houses, expensive jewelry, exotic vacations - famous sportsmen and women have it all.
While owning a sports car is a dream for most, a lot of MLB stars have made it into a reality. Baseball legends' everyday routine often involves cruising across town in a Ferrari with the top down.
Considering the status of some of these stars, let’s look at the 5 most expensive cars that MLB players drive.
