Padres star is ready to bet on himself as he enters the final year before a planned opt out; that should be good news for the 2023 club
Hang a gold star on the first four years of the 10-year contract between Manny Machado and the Padres.
Bear in mind, the $105 million would be added to both the $30 million due Machado this year and the $150 million he’s due under the original contract’s final five years.Thanks to the recent free-agent contracts to older stars Trea Turner, 29, and Aaron Judge, 30, additional stacks of poker chips went into the hands of Machado and Lozano.Turner got 11 years and $300 million from the Phillies. The Yankees are paying Judge $360 million over nine years.
As it pertained to Machado, Bogaerts’ arrival provided an important if indirect reminder: under Seidler and Preller, the Padres aren’t sentimental about their players — even those they’ve showered with money and genuine-sounding praise. See: many of the highly rated prospects Preller has packaged for big league-talent.
So what we have here in Seidler, Preller, Machado and Lozano are four savvy operators who put together a massive, complicated contract that’s benefited all of them through the deal’s 40-percent mark. There isn’t a small-timer in the room. They understand that Major League Baseball, which would monetize the very air that fans breathe if it could, is very much a business.
