Orioles likely to complete Manny Machado trade shortly after All-Star Game

It appears that tonight’s All-Star Game at Nationals Park will be the last time Manny Machado wears an Orioles uniform.

On Tuesday morning, the Orioles continued to close in on finalizing a trade to send Machado to a contender, and a source said that a deal will likely be completed over the next 72 hours.

A deal could be completed as soon as Wednesday, but definitely before the Orioles resume the regular season on Friday in Toronto.

That means that Machado, who is the starting American League shortstop in tonight’s All-Star Game in Washington, will have played in his final game with the Orioles and will wear the team’s uniform for the final time tonight.
