Congrats to Anthony for the sports heist of the century by a player.
More time for golf and Jesus
Rendone?
Fuck him
I used to pray for times like this
Honestly, respect to him for finding like 8 different ways to get paid to not do his job.
The goat of quiet quitting
This dude should be in prison for robbing the Angels
I called that he would be a FA bust. From hearing him talk about how he doesnt like baseball. I didnt expect he would be this bad of a bust.
What a generational scamjob
Now sell the team Arte

He next day on the dodgers stadium!
A huge fall from grace. He was actually at one time a very well liked player who was having a solid career, especially in 2019. Then it all went to absolute shit. Not only is he one of the biggest fa busts of all time, he became a very very unlikeable player.
It’s one thing to struggle or have injuries, but another to just be a smarmy douche the entire time about it like Rendon was.
3.9 WAR in 5 years in LA
5 of his 7 individual years in Washington were better than that
Every time I’m reminded of his contract I always feel so terrible for Angels fans he straight up ripped you guys off during his tenure
Angels are gonna trade for Kris Bryant

Gonna end up making $800,000+ per game played.
Just historical levels of theft.
Bernie Madoff level stealing.
Hope this guy just fucks off and never shows his face again. Bum. So many kids could have had his roster spot.
Glad he missed out on that Hollywood lifestyle
Gotta be the worst free agent contract ever?

One of the great bag getters of all time
so, slice that $38,571,429 into 10 installments with interest and how much would he likely make by the end of 2036?
how much of a pay cut do yall think he’s taking to just retire
So, apparently Anthony went to Scam School and did actually learn a thing or two.
He’s a bum. Good plan here.
Definitely one of the worst FA Signings in history. To be fair, there’s always a risk with every signing but you just don’t expect this
No matter what team you support, we can all join hands in agreement of FUCK this guy
In his final 2 years with the Nats he had 148 more plate appearances than his 5 seasons with the Angels
He’s obviously an extreme example, but players like Rendon are the reason owners are hesitant to ever hand out a long-term megadeal to a 29 year old. Baseball players tend to be most productive in their 20s but become infinitely more expensive for their 30s. Even the ones that remain great will more than likely be a bit of dead weight by the end of the contract.
There goes one of the few remaining active players older than me. Not too many left now
So if this goes through, this means Kris Bryant would have the worst active contract.

A million a game. Nice contract.

MLB network’s top 3B entering 2021

Edit: 2021 not 2020
This dude is gonna become a megachurch grifting pastor just watch
Hopefully the Angels are successful so they go out and give Verlander or Scherzer a $300 mil ten year contract. That will fix everything
I’m not even an Angels fan and I want to never hear this name again

Incredible heist job this man pulled off. What a joke of a player
He should be arrested for grand theft lol
This dude still exists?
Never seen someone seemingly quit caring as hard as Rendon did as soon as he got paid.
If I was an Angels fan, he’d easily be my least favorite player of all time
Bro can now officially retire. He’s been practicing living life like a retired player for 4 years already.
Greatest robbery in sports history.
I was actually an Anthony Rendon fan even though he was on the Nats and would kick the Braves ass. Dude could play ball.
Then he signed with the Angels and just fucking disappeared and acted like he didn’t give a shit (probably not even an act though).
What a fucking heist. I wonder if guys like him ever feel bad about getting paid millions upon millions of dollars to do absolutely nothing.
