PHILADELPHIA -- Manny Machado answered questions Wednesday, unsure of what team he'll be suiting up for when the calendar turns to August. But he was aware the team in the opposing clubhouse at Citizens Bank Park could make a push for him over the next four weeks.
The Phillies could make a splash by acquiring the three-time All-Star from the Orioles before the non-waiver Trade Deadline on July 31. It would be a daring move by a franchise trying to make the playoffs for the first time since 2011.
The Phillies have played their way into being buyers at the Deadline.
