It's only 1 season. What happens after that has nothing to do with any trade they make (unless part of the trade is him negotiating an extension which is not going to happen). If he is traded to NY, they're going to have a year of negotiations with him, which gives them a significant advantage over everyone else in its own. The narrative will always be that The Baltimore Orioles traded Manny Machado to The New York Yankees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That year is meaningless in these negotiations. If you think it would have any effect you don't know Scott Boras Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom cody Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 If the Yankees get Machado then they'll win the World Series for the next few yrs. Machado, Stanton, Judge, Sanchez and Gardner would be one of the best top 5 batting lineups in baseball history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll still have to outbid everyone else. I think it could have some impact if he falls in love with the city, franchise, players, and especially if we won a WS. But at the end of the day there will be so many factors. We would be, in my view, clear favorites to sign him either way. And him coming here doesn't really move the needle much tbh.

If the Orioles are smart (they're not) they'll demand a stipulation in any trade that they get the team they trade Machado to's best remaining prospect if they trade Machado within six months of the original deal being made.

mission27 Posted December 16, 2017 Author Share Posted December 16, 2017 Realistically there is no way to prevent him being traded to NY. Even if you send him to a team that’s trying to compete like the Giants, if they’re under .500 in July, he’s gone. They should accept and take best offer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RavensfanRD Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Hopefully he's gone before Christmas and we get the world and everything in it. Wish baseball was like football where people would try to 'fix' a player because they can take The Deputy, Chris Davis off our hands too, haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
