Brandon Belt baffled as MLB teams continue to show him zero interest

Brandon Belt turned his career around last season with the Toronto Blue Jays, however, after the team decided not to re-sign him, he has been struggling to find another home in Major League Baseball.

While being interviewed on the JD Bunkis Podcast, Brandon Belt explained that his post-Blue Jays career has been tough, with barely anyone showing interest. In fact, he has called the experience "baffling" as he believes he has done enough to get onto a Major League Baseball roster.


Prior to his season with the Toronto Blue Jays, the 35-year-old had spent his entire career with the San Francisco Giants. In 2022, he had an abysmal season that saw him notch just eight home runs. His batting average was .213 that season, which was the lowest of his career. The following season with the Blue Jays, Brandon Belt came back with 19 home runs and a .254 batting average, according to Baseball Reference.





As Belt went on to say, he just wants to get his respect. He has proven himself over his career, and considering some of the other players in the Majors, Belt sees himself as someone deserving of a place. Only time will tell whether or not other teams agree.


As for the those still on the Blue Jays, they are taking on the Houston Astros tonight. The game is still in its early stages, and if you are in Canada, you can go watch the game over on Sportsnet.
