In his Nats last year Rendon led the league in doubles and RBI. In 2020 his first year with the Angels the only thing he led the league in was hitting into double plays. His BA went down 33 points and his slugging percentage went from .598 to .497. He's two years older coming into this year at 32 in June. He'll make 36 million this year and 2023 thru 2025 he'll make 38 million a year. That's more than Mike stinking Trout is going to make. Of course in 2021 he didn't give the Angels anything. He was bad before he got hurt. It looks like the Nats were lucky they didn't sign him.
They could have used the money saved on Strasburg/Rendon to sogn a few good players.  Now the result is tanking.  Oh well.
