PEORIA, Ariz. -- If the Padres have their way, Manny Machado will be their Opening Day third baseman.
That's not earth-shattering news. Twenty-nine other teams would happily pencil Machado into their starting lineup. The news is that the Padres are making a serious push for the star third baseman.
It's easy to see why. Machado fills an obvious void at third base, and he'd become an anchor in the middle of San Diego's lineup for most of the next decade.
