Audacy” ranked the Nationals’ pitchers as No. 1 and No. 2.
Audacy, a U.S. media outlet, has selected the 10 “worst contracts” currently in effect in Major League Baseball. Among them, infielder Anthony Rendon, who signed a seven-year, $245 million contract with the Angels beginning in the 2020 season, ranks third worst. The 32-year-old, who is unlikely to return this season after right wrist surgery, has the right to veto a trade and has $152 million left on his contract over four years beginning in 2023. Due to the team’s financial problems, the article notes, the team may decide that pitcher Shohei Ohtani “will not be able to build a winning team.
They don’t have enough money to build a team that can compete for championships.
Rendon won the batting title in 2019 while with the Nationals. He was a major contributor to the team winning the World Series. However, after joining the Angels, he was out for an extended period of time with injuries last year and this year, appearing in only 103 games in total over the two years. On the other hand, he has the right to refuse trades and will be paid $38 million per year for the next four years.
The Angels signed outfielder Mike Trout to a 12-year, $432 million (58.3 billion yen) blockbuster contract in March 2019, and it is said that they are burdened with paying the two players and do not have enough money to field a team that can compete for a championship. Because of this, Ohtani “may decide that the Angels will not be able to build a winning team around Ohtani himself,” according to the article.
Strasburg, who signed a seven-year, $245 million contract with the Nationals after winning the MVP World Series, has had a string of injuries, and the article says, “This contract is essentially a ‘lifetime achievement award. Corbin, who signed a six-year, $140 million contract with the Nationals in FA in December 2018, has also been in a slump since 2008.
Eric Hosmer is fourth and Robinson Cano fifth, while Miguel Cabrera, Joey Votto, Josh Donaldson, Jason Heyward, and Madison Bumgarner round out the top 10 from sixth through 10th.
