The long-awaited Manny Machado sweepstakes may finally be nearing a conclusion. At least with spring training five weeks away, Bryce Harper and Machado are running out of time for their decision. And Machado’s decision may very well be to sign with the White Sox.
We know that there are only three teams that have been in on the sweepstakes, the New York Yankees, Philadelphia Phillies, and White Sox. Initially, I thought he would sign with the Yankees, my reasoning being that the team has a history of getting whomever they covet. But that hasn’t been true since like 2009.
