Anthony Rendon has not been on the field for quite a while. The Angels slugger had a rocky road with the team, as most of his struggles came due to injuries. Rendon has played a limited number of games since his debut with the team.
In total, Rendon played 257 games in the last five years, which is pretty less. The Angels signed the third baseman to a seven-year $245 million deal. His contract averages close to $35 million per year, and the franchise has not got the best out of him.
Recently, Barstool Sports shared a post on X saying that Ted Williams played more baseball than Anthony Rendon. What’s intriguing is that the post claims that Williams played more baseball in five years, including the years he served in World War II. Fans quickly took to X to share their thoughts on the same.

Anthony Rendon Looks To Have A Positive 2025 Season
The Angels need Rendon to step up and perform for the team in 2025. Rendon hardly performed for the team and has a couple of years left to prove himself. If things do not go well in 2025, the Angels could part ways with Rendon.
The Angels slugger hopes to have a positive season for his team in 2025. The team is planning on using Rendon as a backup plan for Nolan Schanuel. The slugger will need to perform both defensively and offensively.
Angels fans are hoping that Anthony Rendon stays healthy this season. MLB trade rumors continue in full swing as Anthony Rizzo seems to have the best suitor in the market.
