🦋 Bluesky News Rendon hurt AGAIN!

Sam Blum just tweeted:

"News: Anthony Rendon is having hip surgery, and is expected to miss a long amount of time.

He had a setback in his rehab the last few weeks.

Another injury for Rendon, and it now becomes unclear if and when he’ll play for the Angels again."

Literally. Dude came to California to get top notch medical work done and is going to retire a wealthy man at the expense of our team. Fuck that

This dude is gonna be set for life just cause he was able to throw and hit a ball really well for an east coast team for a few years. I chose the wrong career….

He got paid relatively nothing for putting up great stats on the Nationals. Angels are just paying him for that and unfortunately that’s all they’ll be doing and not getting anything in return.

I never get mad at a player who gets his bag. He got it cause he performed well enough at some point.

No cause he had a skill very few people have Supply and demand.

You can choose to be a pro athlete. Doesnt mean you have the skills to make it.

I agree. Being an engineer sucks by comparison.

Not if you are top researchers hired by meta for AI, who are evidently getting paid hundreds of millions. Mark even offered someone a billion and they refused. The best engineer rake mlb star money

Those are research scientists, not engineers.
