Machado is on his way to a Hall of Fame career. A stop in New York makes perfect sense.
“I’m proud of the player he’s become and the husband he’s become,” Mets manager Buck Showalter said Friday when asked about his former Orioles star. “I’m not going there. He’s somebody else’s player, and they’re lucky to have him.” He’s somebody else’s player for now, anyway. and while the mid-market team played the left coast version of the Mets this winter with eye-popping signings, they weren’t able to prevent Machado’s early opt-out declaration. So it’s time to start dreaming.
There’s also no reason to think Machado wouldn’t relish the opportunity to come to New York, either. He’s an East Coaster from Miami whose original mentor was Alex Rodriguez, and he seemed interested in coming here four years ago before the Yankees passed . Showalter as manager can’t hurt, either. Word is, they are close. Machado made his name in Baltimore under Showalter, which allowed him to sign that stunning San Diego contract in the first place.
Machado’s play has continued to improve, and he made quite an MVP case last year. I think he should have gotten the award, though the winner, Paul Goldschmidt, was just about equally fantastic. It wasn’t only Machado’s 32 home runs, 102 RBIs and .298 batting average, but the cast around him when Fernando Tatis Jr. was out, and before Juan Soto came aboard.“I think he should have taken [the MVP].
