The Dodgers have been rumored to land Manny Machado since before the season even began. The fit was questionable before the season, stronger as they began to struggle, and unquestionable once Corey Seager went down for the year. With the trade deadline drawing closer, reports of a trade are becoming more frequent with the most recent coming from Buster Olney of ESPN. Olney shared that according to his sources, teams are “at the 35 yard-line, and driving” towards a potential deal. Along with Olney’s tweet which demonstrated great progress towards a deal, the Dodgers have been named as the strong favorites to land the star shortstop/third baseman although the exact offer is unclear due to multiple rumors.
