Angels could maximize their return if they know he wants to leave, and they would/should have their pick of anyone's farm system in trading him.

Jeez, can you imagine that? On Machado: Mildly surprised that he didn't sign anywhere in the first week of January, but I expect him to sign this upcoming week. That, to me, was always the prime point. I figured he'd sign in the second week or possibly first. Manny not signing till Feb he's not even close to signing.

Would have no problem trading him if he was 0.5 seasons away from free agency and I could get a huge haul. Of course, permitting that I'd be out of the playoff shot at that time. I'd get a haul.

If I cant get the job with him, I sure as hell would rather re-tool the entire franchise by trading him.

January 5, 20197 yr If we all just stop engaging Peavy44 and replying to his nonsense, we can probably reduce the length of these threads by like 30% or so.

January 5, 20197 yr Just now, ChiliIrishHammock24 said: No, but these threads won't be as long. Never underestimate the posting frequency of the ignored poster
January 5, 20197 yr 1 minute ago, ChiliIrishHammock24 said: No, but these threads won't be as long. This has to be the longest thread ever if put together, even longer than the Eric Chavez one.
January 5, 20197 yr If all the Machado threads from the past month were combined into one, it would be 7,000+ posts long. Not kidding either.
January 5, 20197 yr 17 minutes ago, Kyyle23 said: Never underestimate the posting frequency of the ignored poster Yeah that's a good point, I could just put him on ignore.
January 5, 20197 yr 18 minutes ago, HakunaMachado said: Wow. Per heyman, Tulo got no trade clause from NYY. Interesting. This more than anything makes me feel better about him in context of Machado. Granted, he could just be cut, but still.
