Report: Yankees are Out on Manny Machado, Race Down To White Sox and Phillies
I was told as recently as yesterday that the Yankees FO was completely split on Manny Machado and lowballed him on a prelim offer in both years/money. Basically a take it/leave it offer that Hal Steinbrenner refused to budge from.
And before anyone questions the validity of Hector Gomez – he broke the Castillo and Cano PED suspensions and has never been wrong. He’s connected and trustworthy.
Every day we inch closer to Manny being a member of the White Sox and a nice, healthy period of ‘sustained success’.
Don’t lose to Philly twice in the same week, Chicago…
PS – Pray for Dan Clark – this dude just lost every ounce of credibility he’s ever had. Or didn’t have, because apparently he’s hated by O’s fans:
