Wow great questions. 

A Rod.    HRs as a teen and age 40.  I know only because it happened recently.

Some more. 

Name the most HRs one season by a pair of teammates
Bonus name the top 5 ?

What pitcher is currently 10 wins away from 250?

Only two players have 600 HRs, 3,000 hits and 2,000 RBIs.  Who are they ?  Bonus who might join them this season?

Home runs before 20...

Guessing that it’s some of these five:

Ty Cobb
Brooks Robinson
Rusty Staub
Al Kaline
Rogers Hornsby

Tried to think of guys who played a long time. Maybe Williams?

One down, three to go.  Yes, Rodriguez is one of the four. 

Your question re: 600 HRs, 2000 RBIs and 3000 hits is a bit tricky.  I want to say Mays, Aaron and Rodriguez but you said two.  I’m guessing Mays did not reach 2000 RBIs because he batted 3rd in the lineup instead of cleanup.  Therefore, Aaron/ARod.

Hmmm...  most HRs by teammates - I believe that Mantle/Maris held the record until the steroid era.  Was it broken during that time?  I’m not certain.

Bob:  It is hard to believe Maris/Mantle still hold the record.  I thought they might but homers were so prolific during ithe steroid era, I figured that record had been broken....
