Only three things are certain in life: Death, taxes, and the Los Angeles Angels overpaying for an All-Star free agent. The names of failed contracts the Angels have signed have become familiar to baseball fans everywhere. There were small deals that backfired like those of Matt Harvey, Jose Quintana, and Tim Lincecum. Next, were the mid-range signings that were incredible failures like Zack Cozart and Gary Matthews Jr. Maybe Justin Upton fits into that group too. Unfortunately for Angels fans, current Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon fits into the final group. The Angels should release Rendon instead of letting his final year or two play out like the next two players. These two epic failures saddled the organization with a reputation for bad free-agent signings. Rendon has only made that reputation grow. Therefore, the Angels should release star Anthony Rendon and continue their youth movement in 2025.
