Former MLB All-Star outfielder Carlos Gómez is looking to make his comeback in sports, but he's trading the diamond for the road.

Gómez, who retired from baseball in 2020, is attempting to qualify for the 2024 Paris Olympics in cycling, per the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Todd Rosiak. According to Rosiak, Gómez is training to compete in the velodrome.

Rosiak reported that if he wins a qualifying race in May, the 13-year veteran could have the chance to represent the Dominican Republic in the 500-meter velodrome.

The 500-meter velodrome, which is more a test of strength and speed rather than endurance, makes sense for the speedy outfielder, and he is apparently on a strenuous training regimen. Rosiak reported that Gómez is eating 7,000 calories a day to make up for the weight he loses due to his intense training.

Gómez competes in the "masters" category for competitors ages 33-40, and he apparently is one of the top competitors in the Dominican Republic due to his lower body strength.

But cycling isn't the only sport he's been competing in since the end of his baseball career. He also was doing MMA training before a neck issue and a shift to focusing on cycling.

Gómez, who played for seven different teams but spent most of his time with the Milwaukee Brewers, finished his MLB career with 1,189 hits, 145 home runs and 546 RBI.
