According to Jon Heyman of Fancred, the Brewers have checked in on Machado and join a cast of other National League teams in pursuit of him. Heyman also notes that the Brewers have the best prospect list among the other suitors. That should give them a better chance of landing the stud infielder.
While the Milwaukee Brewers could easily offer a Keston Hiura or Corbin Burnes to headline a package, it’s not something they should consider. Machado is a rental and wouldn’t re-sign with Milwaukee in free agency.
Even though the Orioles will likely target Hiura or Burnes in a deal, reports are that teams are unwilling to meet the high asking price for Machado.
