Shohei Ohtani, Top 2024 MLB Free Agents After Manny Machado's New Padres Contract

There will be one fewer superstar available in free agency next offseason after Manny Machado reportedly agreed to a massive new deal with the San Diego Padres.

According to ESPN's Jeff Passan, the two sides are finalizing an 11-year, $350 million deal. Dennis Lin and Britt Ghiroli of The Athletic reported the new deal features no opt-outs and a full no-trade clause.

It's a major turnaround just over a week after Machado indicated he would opt out after the season and become a free agent.

"So far this year, I'm a Padre, but who knows next year," Machado told reporters earlier this month.
