Trea Turner did not take kindly to Anthony Rendon’s Nationals exit

Trea Turner has spent the past five seasons sharing an infield with Anthony Rendon, but that will come to an end in 2020.

And guess what? Turner isn’t too happy about that.

Coming off a breakout World Series championship season with the Nationals, Rendon agreed to a huge, seven-year, $245 million deal with the Los Angeles Angels. The deal brought an end to Rendon’s seven-year run with the Nationals, which included two Silver Slugger awards and an All-Star appearance.

With Rendon off to join Mike Trout and Shohei Ohtani in Anaheim, Turner took to Twitter and shared his devastated reaction to the news.

Turner went to his dresser, found an “Anthony Is My Favorite Player” shirt and tossed it on the ground against a wall.

Poor Trea.

Turner probably knew how difficult it was for Rendon to move on from Washington, but still, it didn’t mean that the Nationals shortstop had to be happy about it.
