Rendon contract restructured

[Ronnie Dobbs]

So can he after not living up to what he said he'd do
back in 2020.
IF he was a normal "not" working Joe would you feel the same?

Yeah he scored so I get it but man, no integrity.

I don't know that he's not doing what he said he was going to do. It's not like he opted out of the contract and still got paid. I'm guessing the Angels approached him about it. And the front office would have stopped paying him a long time ago if they could.

I'd be fine with it if he were a regular guy. But I'm very proud of him for doing it to a scumbag like Moreno.

He took a $250M contract to play baseball for 7
years.

By reports and articles that I have read he has not
been all that interested in filling his side of that contract.
He's not interested in baseball.

Look if he was working to get back on the field and couldn't
fine, that can be respected. That act, I don't regardless of
who is doing it, worse when he doesn't need it.

Man, for real? I’d be humiliated if I were Rendon. The guy is so disliked they are paying to rid themselves of the cancer that permeated the locker room. I’d feel absolutely worthless to be paid millions to get the F away, and to fail so miserably on a contract, it will go down as one of the most historical mistakes. He’s an absolute loser.

I doubt he gives a f

Sounds like his life is great. Why would he care what anyone outside of his close friends and family thinks? Whether that’s a random person on Reddit or a bunch of sports talking heads trying to get clicks by giving hot takes. I don’t blame him. There are certain things he might prioritize in life before work? What’s wrong with that? Isn’t there the whole “god, then family, then guns” that so many live by? I don’t see work in there.

Besides, we don’t know what he’s going through. Maybe he is really hurt and can’t get healthy? Or they just get old and not very good. And sometimes both. We see it happen all the time with players. Or maybe he has some personal or family issues that we don’t know about and his focus isn’t his job. Is it a bad thing if he was putting his family first? And besides, where are hearing all the negative stuff from? Rendon isn’t some big, flashy guy. He’s not out there talking (bleep), but there sure a lot out there from “league sources” or just take having media figures.

These guys are human. And again, owners wouldn’t hesitate to screw over a player and try to get out of paying them the second he starts to age or gets hurt. How many times do you see that in the NFL? So, if he is faking, he’s not doing anything his bosses wouldn’t do to him given the chance. So good for him.

[Cusecards]

Well......if any organization is capable of making a dumb move it’s the Angels.
One of the worst run teams in pro sports!

[Cardinals1964]

What teams has Arenado agreed to go to?

[ScotchMIrish]

That's something that needs to be changed in the next collecting bargaining agreement. The Ohtani deal is a perfect example. No deferred money.

I respect you as a solid poster.

But that was 3 paragraphs of deep male cow excrement.

[mattmitchl44]

The MLBPA will never agree to it, but player contracts should be more like 1/3 guaranteed money + 2/3 performance-based money or 1/2 guaranteed money + 1/2 performance-based money.

The downside of a guaranteed Rendon-like contract is damaging enough for a typically larger budget team like the Angels, but it would be lethal to any chance for a lower-mid to small market team to be competitive for a decade. Half the MLB teams have to be extremely cautious of ever even thinking of entering into such a contract.

May this type of overhyped bum never find the Cardinals

What a major disappointment to read this. This might be the single worst take I’ve ever seen on any particular subject. My God, I can’t believe there are people like this out there…

The difference between you and me is that I see mind-bogglingly stupid posts (like yours), and my reaction is not to be super self-righteous it's to laugh.

And I can also definitely believe there are people like you out there, cause I have a pretty good grasp of reality.
