Just yesterday here at Phillies Nation our Editorial Director, Tim Kelly, wrote a piece on Manny Machado centered around comments the player had made on his own perceived lack of hustle at times.
In that piece, Kelly reported on a handful of quotes attributed to Machado in an interview conducted by Ken Rosenthal at The Athletic with the pending free agent shortstop.
One of those quotes stood out enough that Kelly highlighted it in his headline:
“…I’m not the type of player that’s going to be ‘Johnny Hustle,’…That’s just not my personality, that’s not my cup of tea, that’s not who I am.
