How Josh Donaldson Became The Angriest Player in Baseball 

This is the best comment I’ve ever seen in my life.

Love your channel bro

Haha

@@lil_kay8157 I assumed you were a confused foreigner

Yea, that's not funny at all. Making light of child abuse is a fucking scum bag move.

There are those guys where everyone knows if they’re arguing, they’re usually right. Miggy is another one of those guys.

Vladdy is like that

Yeah. Donaldson ought to become an ump when he retires. In fact, i think former players should make the best umps

Exactly!! His zone awareness is damn near 100%. Then when he lays into a pitch it’s no doubt....bomb!! Honestly have not seen him hit a dribbler or a Texas leaguer...

That’s basically Josh Donaldson, Bryce Harper, and Joey Votto, guys who know the strike zone better than the umps and aren’t afraid to argue about it.

The tales of Florida man

Goofy

lol

He really is the epitome of the term "Florida Man" LOL

PENSACOLA Florida man... don't leave that part out!

Racist

@@twstdreality wtf...

@@njbendele1645 Thought the same thing

@@twstdreality criminal≠race

Hopefully he will be the start of a new cycle of being successful

HUGE AGREE

Its definitely the way he tells it. Lots of energy and a charismatic attitude. Love this channel

it's that Death Note focus music

100% Dude can tell a story like few others.

? not really. ur just used to crap that disney and the rest of hollywood puts out. Your comparing him to shit today. Plenty of people tell great stories. Not a lost art or anything new. Its just this guy not shoving some bs down our throats or telling the same old bs washed up story for the millionth time

I agree with that statement

No jokes I don’t even like baseball but this channel makes it exciting

BDE and Baseball Bits are the two best shows on RU-vid.

@@HawknApache You should. Basketball was always my favorite sport but since last year I have really gotten into baseball. Also people say it’s boring but what’s crazy is that I have adhd and I have never really found it boring tbh

100% agree

So funny.

Serious, he's flippin' hilarious. His great sense of humor easily overshadows any anger issues to me.

I died right there. 😂

Dude seems like he’d be the funnest teammate if you could handle and respect his intensity

🤣🤣🤣🤣

coming from that background he doesnt let anyone walk over him

It may just be the fire he desperately needed in life to be as successful as he is

@Azrael Kain I mean, you’re not wrong about that organization’s intentions, but why do people drag politics into everything?

i didnt know u were a baseball fan

Aren’t you that beta boy?

@@itsskittletime1215 don’t take the joke so seriously

@@itsskittletime1215 Nobody is actually from florida, everybody just moves there

@@itsskittletime1215 There's a certain type of guy who can simultaneously be intelligent, although not necessarily bookish, hard-working, and also chaotically wild. America breeds more of them than Western Europe, and, within the US, they're more common in a place like Florida than somewhere like Vermont.

The "Florida Man" thing exists for one main reasons with outliers that make it worse. Arrest records are public here. It's a huge state with a large population and crazy wildlife. It also has parts that are basically empty and boring (any area of the country like that has drug issues). So people just scour the arrest records and find crazy stuff and post it. Honestly every state has several "Florida Man" moments every year. It's just was easier to find here. It's also insane because most of the state is so lowly populated and like "the south" while then you have South Florida (Miami Dade, Broward, and West Palm) that are cultural melting pots filled with geniuses and assholes. It's definitely a wacky state. Like St Petersburg and Tampa. It's like you cross the street from island paradise with friendly people to meth labs and assholes. Even Orlando is making massive progress... But like every large state there are chunks of cities with 4k populations just fucking and fighting. It's crazy but Cali and Texas have the same problem.... It's easier being from and living in Miami as it's considered it's own world.

@@janso7979 yeah of course more people like that come from Florida than Vermont. Are you aware of population and population density? Manhattan breeds more crazy people than all of Vermont and you could fit what, 500 Manhattans in Vermont? (Actually about 430 and all of Vermont has half the population of Manhattan) You think a place like Wyoming has the pinnacle of humankind? You don't think California or Texas have issues? I rather deal with a Florida idiot than a Texas idiot any day.

He's the guy you want on your team, definitely the kind of guy you want behind the plate if you're pitching. I had a catcher in high school who definitely had an anger issue, not to dissimilar to Donaldson, and he would not be afraid to come out to the mound to tell you to fix it if you weren't living up to his expectations with his colorful language on full display. If that umpire was giving bad calls though, or someone on the other team hit one of our guys, he was the first one yelling and sticking up for his pitcher. We didn't really get along outside of the lines, but man, the amount of respect we had for each other when we were the battery. Some guy absolutely leveled him on a play at the plate one time, and that was the only baseball brawl I've ever been a part of, whole team went after that poor dude. I don't think their team was expecting it. We caught a few in the ribs for the rest of the game, as did they. Scrappy game, but that's the kind of energy someone like that brings to a team, love him if he's on your team, hate him if you're playing against him.

@@Alexander_Grant I’ve never heard of, let alone seen a full-team brawl during a high school game Yeesh, that guy musta been one hell of a competitor

@@warlordofbritannia Yeah he was feisty enough that the team knew he'd do the same for us. It happened in the late 2000s, so it was before things like that went viral or anyone thought to pull out their cell phone. Our team was a group of country boys who grew up in either run down trailer parks or working on ranches and farms. It was kind of the culture of the team, if you had a problem with another guy you'd take it behind the dugout after practice and the coaches would look the other way. A lot of them were some tough SOBs, I wasn't really one of those, being a pitcher and all. Most of us on both teams got suspended for the next game. Lot of freshmen got a varsity jersey for that next game. Loved that team to death though, once you earned your respect in the dugout, they had your back between the lines.

He fired up the jays in 2015, 50-51 after the all-star break, supposedly he called out the players not carrying their weight and said "this isn't the try league!" That and some key trades they finished the season 93-69.

@@Biggballsdance Yes, he's like that teacher we all had in school who pushed you so hard and you hated them for it, but by the end of the year, you loved them for it.

Ew..... Padded Rugby fan Go back to your CTE brain damage, 2 hours worth of commercials, sport that hardly anyone globally watches

@@HoshizakiYoshimasa ...Where'd that come from, mate? That has nothing to do with the video or comment, are you _always_ a jerk looking for trouble where there isn't any, or do you turn the dickishness on and off like a switch?

@@HoshizakiYoshimasa cause if I don’t like the sport nobody can right? get out of here

Watching Jays games basically that entire season gave me that feeling towards umps, especially guys like Angel Hernandez and Joe West. There was such a clear bias sometimes.

CB Bucknor for MVP

Yeah I dislike umps too... except that Angel Hernandez guy, he's alright in my book.

I was at that game It was crazy, the crowd was ready to riot lol

Specially after they got tulo and price , they were one solid pitcher away from winning a World Series

Yeah man

One of the greatest modern teams to not win a championship

@Sahil Warsariya don’t forget smoke and martin along with pillars superhuman arm in center

They're probably the most overrated MLB team of that era. They sure get talked about a lot for a team that never made the World Series, never won 95 games, were only in the playoffs twice and had one ill-deserved MVP (Mike Trout was both a better hitter and fielder in 2015.) I mean, they show the Bautista home run off Dyson and the Encarnacion homer off Jimenez a lot for how little they meant in the end. By contrast, you basically never see any highlights of the Royals' two WS runs and their WS championship from the same time frame. 'Fun' is also very subjective. Their best two players, Donaldson and Bautista, are assholes. David Price is an asshole too. They had two different domestic abusers on the team (Reyes and Osuna). Kevin Pillar was suspended for homophobia. They played entertaining baseball, but the team was basically the 70s Raiders without any of the winning.

He's actually a pretty toxic guy. Yes, he wants to win, but lots of individualism happening. Not a team guy. He should have been a boxer.

I liked him when he was in Toronto but after he was traded I kinda just forgot about him

@@tacticalfishy617 he was a beast in toronto

set921 somebody is mad

@@set921 Lol you need one of this guys in a team. This can drive a team. If we go by what you suggested we lost another baseball talent.

Luv your mommy folks, unconditional love

The intros on his videos are soooo goooood

@@AgentJstyle I love them!!

What is the songgggg

@@JackCallSports the little soundtrack that goes throughout in the video. It's like a little beat.

@@Marco-wr9hh the intro I meant

I think the videos can be a bit sensationalist and over the top sometimes, but I do still enjoy them

Red Sox SUCK

Yankees all day let’s goo 🔥💪💪🏻

@@mayathomas8934 I suppose so, but,as your comment implies, there’s a fine line between that (being occasionally sensationalist) and being dishonest,

@K same

Pensacola, gulf breeze area is so gorgeous. Alot of the inhabitants leave much to be desired, tho.

Florida is a rough place I moved there as an immigrant from venezuela and you wouldn’t believe the shit I have to put up with to not get in trouble and then there’s the racism everywhere you turn I hate living in Florida I can defo understand the anger Donaldson has caused I had it as well but I’m much happier now moving out of Florida was the best decision I made in a long time.

Daddy issues

@@BraveFencer I'm sorry you had to experience that in your time in Florida, but there are plenty of good people who live in Florida you know.

Put them on the map? Bro, pretty sure our back to back world series wins did that.

​@@InWitheNew30 years ago lol

@@amirlmao8270 He already made a video on Donaldson being angry, too, that's why he said that. This one's just more in depth and a lot longer.

@@amirlmao8270 no worries, I had to check myself, thought I was going crazy

I’m like Donaldson when I am mad I play good when I happy I play trash

@@zion7059 fr

*can’t* , you mean.

thats our fucking guy

I've seen more epic runs.. literally every WS champion.

That's how you make baseball fans for life. I think a lot of pro athletes take heckling way too seriously. Some hecklers go way overboard, sure, but I believe in all honestly most are just trying to have fun with the players. We went down to South Louisiana for a baseball tournament in high school baseball once, and some Cajun high schoolers from the same school hosting the tournament had set up a pickup truck behind the left field wall. Pretty sure they were more than a few in, and just heckled every team that warmed up out there, and gave every left fielder a hard time. They gave each of us a nickname, mine was Daddy Long Legs because I was particularly lanky at the time. It was absolutely hilarious.

@@Alexander_Grant watching Aaron Rodgers on Pat McAfee show they have both recounted their favorite hecklers and both said they preferred the creative ones. Rooting for or against them. Make it unique. That girl knew how to do it

Its his age

Fairly certain his Mom is the sole reason he kept it together and channeled his energy to Baseball.

Was just thinking the same. Lots of people aren’t lucky enough to have a mother that supportive.

She looks like she's 27

Overcoming domestic violence, quitting smoking, protecting her son in every way possible and never letting him quit anything in his life. Most parents think their children are the physical reminder of their own bad choices, for people like Donaldson's mother she knows her son is the only good thing that ever happened to her.

Ngl it sounds like his mom was a bit of a karen with a "my babys an angel" syndrome...it all sounds like a testament to josh to channel it all this way

Depending on context it probably isn’t but Billy Beane seems like the kind of guy who’d get chappy if you came at him during an argument and used it.

It was an exciting time in baseball, for sure.

Lmao it's been a ride... thanks for being here since day 1!

@Nicholas Mcglorthin haha yeah he got all salty in the comments of that vid about bauer cheating, worth a read purely because mans flamed his ass too, also we learned big trev doesnt know what fair use is lmao

@@BaseballDoesntExist same I’ve been here since about 2k subs

Yes I love Anthony Rendon he's my all-time favorite player

Same

Don’t trip he getting a chip wit the yanks😉😉

Yeah but arod needs steroids for us to be scared

Both natural short stops

No disrespect to J.D., but Nolan Arenado is the best 3rd baseman since Brooks Robinson and is a great hitter as well. Donaldson is a really good player...Arenado is a Hall of Famer. We know a little something about the hot corner in Atlanta....Eddie Mathews (HOF), Clete Boyer, Darryl Evans, Bob Hoerner, Terry Pendleton (MVP), Chipper Jones (HOF), Donaldson, Austin Riley.

He'll no. Too much toxic individualism. We're glad he's not in TO anymore.

@@set921 Lol, he's the main reason why i was watching the Jays back in the days. He was the best thing that ever happened for baseball up north.

@@set921 no we’re not lol. I wish he was in tor.

Yeah, we need more Little Leaguers who can bean every player on the opposing team. The truth is Donaldson is a role model. We all are, and we all get to decide what kind of role model we want to be. We all need a teammate who will argue, berate, threaten, and fight anyone anywhere for anything. That's because sportsmanship is dead.

Welcome to the Yankees!!! We need some fire in the dugout!!!

Imagine coming back to a video you like then you see a heart on your comment. Thank you so much!

ah but is it Pretty Good

My man...

Saludos hermano🙏
