I think he's gotten too slow to be successful in the majors. <br /><br />I'm not sure anyone will agree to take on $51M for him even if they get half a year of Machado. I'm not even sure that makes sense for the Os. If they're going to punt on 2019 like they should, then they'll need young talent rather than cost savings.Matt Perezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16191574755038653061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2893512317902577458.post-6024405847282711872018-04-23T16:47:52.742-04:002018-04-23T16:47:52.742-04:00CBreezyThreezy, the last I heard he had tried a di...CBreezyThreezy, the last I heard he had tried a different med to have the same benefit. I have said before that I think he ought to stuff himself full of Adderall until he's caught and then when he gets suspended someone else can have his roster spot. That way we get the best performance he is capable of and when he's not performing, he doesn't take up a roster spot or a lineup spot.<br /><br />A little speed'll do ya'.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2893512317902577458.post-7614507666990880362018-04-23T12:13:08.552-04:002018-04-23T12:13:08.552-04:00I don't see anybody taking a half year rental ...I don't see anybody taking a half year rental of Machado with a three-year Davis kicker.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14747695048840426263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2893512317902577458.post-60947042429880655712018-04-23T10:55:19.970-04:002018-04-23T10:55:19.970-04:00It's pretty obvious at this point that Chris D...It's pretty obvious at this point that Chris Davis will continue to be one of the worst contracts in baseball over the next 4.5 years. The real question is if there is any possible way to dump him. How about this proposal: Instead of the Orioles netting a top level prospect in the eventual Machado trade, they simply force a team to accept 3 out of the 4 remaining years of the Davis contract. As a cherry on top, the O's offer to eat the final year and the defered money owed. <br /><br />Even if Davis returns to replacement level value this season, which is best case scenario at this point, you still have to expect a further decline over the next 4 seasons. In my view, its more valuable to forgo a potential good player or two to get rid of the black hole in the middle of our lineup. Of course Davis has a no trade clause I believe, but I think he would agree to a trade with a contender.
