In December, a source told PEOPLE that Rodriguez is currently single and spending "a lot of time with his daughters and enjoying every minute of it."

Rodriguez is "a good father and family means a lot to him," according to the insider. The source added that the retired shortstop is "having a great time with his life and family."

The MLB veteran — who split from fiancée Jennifer Lopez in April — often documents life with his daughters on Instagram, including recently smiling for a selfie and posing together at the University of Michigan.

Rodriguez also celebrated Thanksgiving with his loved ones including Natasha, Ella and Scurtis.

Back in November, the retired athlete shared a photo on Instagram showing himself hugging his daughters before calling them, "The best part of me," in the caption.

Rodriguez told Entertainment Tonight in August that since the breakup, he and his daughters are "in a great place" and now "have the opportunity to take that and move forward and say, 'You know what? We're so grateful for the last five years, how do we make the next five years better because of lessons learned?' "

"So I'm in a great place," he said at the time. "I'm so grateful for where God and the light has really put me, and I'm really looking forward. Mostly to see how my girls keep developing."
