Manny Machado is on the block and teams are lining up to trade for him. Because what could go wrong with a deal for one of Major League Baseball's top superstars?
Plenty, actually.
A few days ago, it wasn't worth the mental energy to sit down and weigh the pros and cons of a Machado trade. He was a member of the Baltimore Orioles and all but guaranteed to stay that way for 2018.
But on Tuesday, the second day of the winter meetings, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reported that the Orioles had gone from merely listening on Machado to actively shopping him.
