Among the biggest names expected to be on the move prior to the July 31 non-waiver trade deadline is Baltimore Orioles star Manny Machado, who has drawn interest from the likes of the Los Angeles Dodgers, among over half a dozen other teams.
The Dodgers have been described as one of the more aggressive suitors for Machado’s services thus far, and the speculation of a match dates back as far as May when shortstop Corey Seager underwent season-ending Tommy John surgery.
Landing Machado won’t be easy, however, as the Orioles have placed an exorbitant price on their franchise shortstop.
