Good morning, Camden Chatters.
Few things in Birdland were more delightful in recent years than the bromance between Manny Machado and Jonathan Schoop, best friends who came up through the minors together, played on winning Orioles teams together, and were seemingly inseparable on and off the field.
Theirs is a friendship that has launched a thousand articles (in Baltimore Magazine and PressBoxOnline, to name two) and videos (like this fun MASN feature). It’s spawned a Manny and Schoop double bobblehead celebrating their famous handshake.
