Anthony Rendon Doesn't Care About Baseball

late last season when Anthony randone was hurt which is basically all he's been since signing with the angels the media wanted to ask him for an update on his latest injury the team themselves have not been providing much of an update so why not just ask him themselves when asked for an injury update randone said no HBA Eng glaz today put on a hoodie and then left the clubhouse for anyone unaware Anthony randone is from Texas and doesn't speak any Spanish so it's pretty clear what he was doing here to the media seems really rude to do right acting like a jerk and yes but with that said what rendone just now said makes the no Haba Eng comments look like words uttered from a saint what he just said makes the no Haba engl comments look like the nicest thing he's ever said to the media our expectations were low for you but Holy Angel spring training is officially underway and we just got complete polar opposite views from the two highest paid players on the team the angels of course are not in a great situation right now after not winning despite having sh Otani on the team for the last 6 years Otani is now gone making the Angels even more around relevant and Mike Trout Still Remains many want trout to be traded and it's been that way for years considering he's been the most consistent and best player in baseball since his rookie season yet has only played in three playoff games three playoff games in which the Angels lost that was almost 10 years ago and trout hasn't sniffed October baseball since it sucks seeing trout just continuously be on a losing team and I'm sure he doesn't love it either but trout has also remained incredibly loyal he's really put up with some crap yet continues to show up every year and give it his all I mean yeah he's making millions of dollars but he still also could be demanding a trade and saying he wants to be on a winner but he hasn't done that it's also something he just spoke about this is what he said exactly watch I think the easy way out is just ask for a trade there might be a time maybe uh I really haven't thought about this you know when I signed that contract I I'm loyal you know I want to win the championship here and um yeah that's I mean that's that's mainly I think the the the overall picture of winning a championship we getting to the playoffs here is bigger satisfaction bailing out and just take an easy way in pure sitcom fashion in the same day around the same time trout is saying this saying that he's loyal that he doesn't want to take the easy way out and thinks the greatest satisfaction would be to win with the angels Anthony randone opened up his mouth to the media and after closing his mouth I think every Angel's employee and their fans wish renon would go back to only knowing Spanish they all wish renon kept up the limited words he had for the media like in all these instances instead you're going to want to sit down pull out some popcorn and if you're an angels fan add some alcohol to this because oh my God you're probably going to need it unless you're already numb to the madness credit to Robert or who sum things up perfectly with this Banger of a tweet everyone other than Angels fans can laugh at this and hell maybe even angels fans at this point are just laughing along because otherwise they'd be crying Sam Blum an angels writer and reporter for the athletic had some questions for endone and he unfortunately answered them here's how the full exchange went last year you said you'd consider retiring what's your mindset now my enthusiasm has been the same since I got drafted to be honest with you I was actually deleting old emails because my storage was to my maximum in my email so I'm going back and deleting old emails I emailed myself a pros and cons of why I wanted to stay in the game this was in 2014 my thought process of the game has not changed since then I keep making it this long so Blum then asked how does your pro and con list compared to 10 years ago rendone answered it's a lot different I'm married I have four kids my priorities have changed since I was in my early 20 so definitely my perspective on baseball has been more skewed Blum followed up asking if baseball is still a top priority for him and and uh to Angels fans watching this you might want to move away from any wall or potential object you'd punch and break out of anger and also maybe break your hand in the process this is what renon said it's never been a top priority for me this is a job I do this to make a living my faith my family come first before this job so if those things come before it I'm leaving Blum then asked if it's a priority at all to which renon said it was but that didn't even sound reassuring adding on that it's his priority because it's his job saying I'm here aren't I Blum then asked you you want to be here renon responded I don't want to talk to you guys at 700 in the morning or whatever time it is so Blum doubled down making it clear that his question wasn't about talking to the media asking do you want to be here playing baseball for the Angels rendon's answer I have answered your question so why do you keep picking at it are you okay great amazing best physical condition of my life okay listen up everybody I have some news it's over we are screwed this is the worst so this has been great so let's get back to work and do the best job that we can I'm scrambling to find words to describe all of this right now because I'm just at a loss for them is this real life I just can't fully comprehend how much a baseball player actually hates baseball how little he actually cares about baseball and how little he cares about helping his team win there's nothing wrong with having your family as your top priority that's totally fine I'm pretty sure most baseball players would say the same thing but there's clearly a difference between literally any baseball player in existence saying that and Anthony randone saying that one of these things is not like the other randone had all the opportunity in this short line of questioning to say that he cared about baseball and the angels and the fans but the dude couldn't even lie which hey I guess you got to respect him for that he's being completely honest but that doesn't make the situation any better Anthony renon is getting paid $38 million a year for the next three years this is coming after he's already been paid $126 million over the last four years and over the last four years he's averaged a total of 50 games per year yet here he is telling you as blatantly and as clear as day as he possibly can how little he cares about helping this team $38 million a year to watch this guy complain about playing baseball this is real none of this is satire it's not some ACT for Laughs this is genuinely how renon feels in a recent interview he did with the Jack Vita show about probably like a month ago when asked if there was one thing he could change about Major League Baseball renon said to shorten the season saying there's too many games we got to shorten the season man it's too many damn games 162 games and 185 three days whatever it is man no we got to shorten bad boy up let's go it almost seems too perfect to be real but again it's all real if there is one human being on the planet to not complain about how many games are in a Major League Baseball season it's Anthony randone yet here we were with randone someone who again has averaged 50 games over the last four years complaining that 162 games is too much like we are living in a sitcom I have no other conclusion at this point Sam blum's next line of questioning should be to every single player on the angels all the coaches the front office and ownership asking their thoughts on rendon's most recent comments maybe this is a hot take maybe this is a wild thing to assume correct me if I'm wrong but I'm going to go on a limb and say that there is just no way his teammates and everyone a part of the Angels organization backs what rendone just said he just told the media that he just simply looks at baseball like a job basically just a place to get his paycheck and make a living because baseball isn't a top priority for him Mike Trout can't feel great about that nobody on the angels can feel any ounce of respect for those types of comments nobody in baseball no players nobody like I would ask the question how this will affect the clubhouse how rendon's teammates and coaches will look at him and how his relationship will be with everyone but then again when you factor in that rendone barely even plays or shows up anyway it's irrelevant to even wonder so you have a baseball player who never plays baseball and doesn't have baseball near the top of his priorities and you have to pay him $38 million just for this upcoming year alone and then you have to give him that for two more years after let that sink in when the madness fully comprehends in your mind if ever let me know what you think thank you for watching and I'll see you soon
