[Gonzalez] Source: Angels in talks to buy out final year of Anthony Rendon’s deal

  1. 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.

  2. 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. 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

  4. Hope this guy just fucks off and never shows his face again. Bum. So many kids could have had his roster spot.

  5. so, slice that $38,571,429 into 10 installments with interest and how much would he likely make by the end of 2036?

  6. 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

  7. In his final 2 years with the Nats he had 148 more plate appearances than his 5 seasons with the Angels

  8. 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.

  9. Hopefully the Angels are successful so they go out and give Verlander or Scherzer a $300 mil ten year contract. That will fix everything

  10. 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

  11. Bro can now officially retire. He’s been practicing living life like a retired player for 4 years already. 

  12. 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.
