So, let’s just leave this here:

Oh, and this:
Coincidences? Tea-leaving? Desperate hope?
Sure. Could be.
But if Manny Machado is going to fall short of his $300+ million megadeal, taking a $35 million per year mini-megadeal sure seems like, heh, a face-saving compromise.
Third base might be getting mega-upgraded soon.
