UPDATE (Wednesday 5:26 pm): The agreement is "agreed":
Machado's contract to the Dodgers is agreed, this could still be some medical / approval to go. Press conference scheduled for Wednesday or Thursday. Many perspectives go to orioles (supposed to be 5). No $ in the case (LA will remain under the threshold anyway)

UPDATE (22:54): Trade is "happening":
Can report with greater certainty: Machado to #Dodgers pass. Among the remaining issues, in addition to details back beyond OF Yusniel Diaz: How much money, if any, #Orioles will send #Dodgers to get a better package and help relieve the luxury of LAD tax concerns.

IMPLEMENTATION DAY (21:11 PM): More details on the trade:
Barring last-minute change, #Orioles & # 39; back for Machado will include only prospects, no #Dodgers Major leagues, sources say The Athletic.
– Ken Rosenthal (@Ken_Rosenthal) July 17, 2018
The Milwaukee Offer #Brewers was considered the second strongest by #Orioles ] officials before opting for #Dodgers package for Manny Machado.
– Bob Nightengale (@BNightengale) July 18, 2018
UPDATE (6:10 PM): Another vote for the Dodgers:
#Dodgers increasingly likely to land in Machado, sources say at athletics. Unless last minute impossibility, several interested teams are waiting for this result.
– Ken Rosenthal (@Ken_Rosenthal) July 17, 2018
Machado all but certain to be distributed in a day or two (and everyone expects it to be the dodgers now ) but the director AL Aj Hinch at this time was given no special instructions to protect / remove him. So, he will represent O in the game.
– Jon Heyman (@JonHeyman) July 17, 2018
UPDATE (4:18 PM): " Nothing is finalized":
Manny Machado has several reports that are probably heading towards the Dodgers, but #Phillies has no reason to believe that they have come out yet. That does not mean that they will have it. It simply means that nothing has been finalized.
– Todd Zolecki (@ToddZolecki) July 17, 2018
Matt Kemp and Ross Stripling both said that they did not have new information, but they heard rumors from Machado, and that – surprise – it would be a welcome addition. #Yankees #Dodgers #Orioles
– Brendan Kuty (@BrendanKutyNJ) July 17, 2018
UPDATE (3:02 PM): Rob Manfred weighs Machado: [19659014] Commissioner Rob Manfred said that his office had no mandate for #Orioles to delay the announcement of an exchange of Manny Machado before the All-Star Game. evening, but would rather wait until Wednesday.
– Bob Nightengale (@BNightengale) July 17, 2018
UPDATE (2:21 PM): Machado on the rumors, he goes to the Dodgers:
Manny Machado just stopped, and he said he sees the Dodgers reports and thinks / assumes they're right (he said he does not know for sure). The Miami product that has been an Orioles all his career has said: "It will be different, but different can be good."
– Jon Heyman (@JonHeyman) July 17, 2018
UPDATE (12:47): Machado to the Dodgers:
The Baltimore #Orioles is expected to trade Manny Machado at #Dodgers Wednesday via https://t.co/r0HdKW3cbX via @USATODAY
– Bob Nightengale (@BNightengale) July 17, 2018
Manny Machado # Orioles will be traded to the NL Teams before the end of the regular season pending Medicals and appropriate approvals according to the sources #Phillies or #Dodgers it appears
– Jim Bowden (@JimBowdenGM) July 17, 2018
Assuming that the phillies do not land manny now, they will always target an SS, preferably one that is a threat with bats. Eduardo Escobar could make sense. Most of the potentially successful SS guys: Iglesias, alcides, Rojas, old friend galvis, hechavarria
– Jon Heyman (@JonHeyman) July 17, 2018
UPDATE (12:32): Looks like Wednesday is the day of the move to Machado:
The Baltimore #Orioles say that unless a last minute snag, they will trade Manny Machado on Wednesday with the #Dodgers #Brewers and #Phillies still in talks . The #Dodgers remain the probable destination on #Brewers .
– Bob Nightengale (@BNightengale) July 17, 2018
Nothing has been done yet, but hear #Phillies remain "aggressively motivated" in the Machado talks, according to a source . Inside, the confidence remains high that they can land.
– Scott Lauber (@ScottLauber) July 17, 2018
UPDATE (11:18 am): The Orioles keep their options open:
#Orioles will keep the others committed clubs until the end of the event must rotate. They had a scout sitting on the system #Dodgers in recent days. But nothing will be done until the Os are comfortable with the transaction they receive and the medical examinations of the players involved.
– Ken Rosenthal (@Ken_Rosenthal) 17 July 2018
Important to remember with #Orioles : Any agreement in place is tentative based on medical examinations. These exams have scuttled O's business in the past, possibly including Britton at HOU last year. A reduced participation of Peter Angelos could make the standards of the team less strict; hard to say.
– Ken Rosenthal (@Ken_Rosenthal) July 17, 2018
If the Dodgers complete the Machado deal (and that they lead), they could move Taylor to 2B, Muncy to 1B and Bellinger to the next. OF stacked. It would be quite a range. Also, if the top of prospect Yusniel Diaz is in the bargain, their miserly prospect looks out the window.
– Jon Heyman (@JonHeyman) July 17, 2018
Sources: top of the page Yusniel diaz is indeed in the offer of the Machado Dodgers currently on the table
– Jon Heyman (@JonHeyman) July 17, 2018
UPDATE (10:42) : The Orioles are about to decide where to trade Manny Machado:
Sources: The Orioles have the structure of an agreement in place, and go through the medical / paperwork part of the transaction. The Dodgers have been heavily invested in their pursuit of Machado, just like the Phillies and other teams, but it is not over yet.
– Buster Olney (@Buster_ESPN) July 17, 2018
Best scammers from the prospect Yusniel Diaz could be at stake in a potential Machado deal. Hit 2 bombs in the futures game. If that's the case, it can be hard to beat. As said, the Dodgers lead as they head for the finish line.
– Jon Heyman (@JonHeyman) July 17, 2018
One thing about the potential Machado dodgers: they are determined to stay below the luxury tax threshold, so they may need to balance the $. Could include the high-priced vet to do it.
– Jon Heyman (@JonHeyman) July 17, 2018
Here we are! Rumors of Manny Machado took an interesting turn Tuesday morning:
Breaking; The Dodgers seem to be the main competitor of superstar Manny Machado as she heads for the finish line. The situation is fluid and brewers and phillies can still have an outside chance. Unless there is a turnaround, the deal should be done this week. @Fancred
– Jon Heyman (@JonHeyman) July 17, 2018
Momentum had built an agreement to send Machado from the Baltimore Orioles to the Philadelphia Phillies, with a report indicating a trade was "very close."
This report also states that the Yankees seem to faint in Machado's draws.
Machado would be an interesting fit for the Yankees. He would probably be asked to play on third base, where he won two Gold Gloves
. General Manager Brian Cashman should then watch rookie Miguel Andujar on first base. Or he could return Andujar for a starting pitcher, who is the biggest need of the team.
Even if the Phillies do not get Machado before the July 31 deadline, expect to be a player when the 26-year-old
The Yankees will return cards
The Phillies and Yankees should both make a run to Bryce Harper, the outfielder of the Machado and Washington Nationals, who are the jewels of the next category of free agency. 19659044] The fact that the Phillies are already in the running for Machado before the trade deadline reflects the speed with which the club has transformed things. The Phillies have managed the break from the all-star game with a half-game lead over the Atlanta Braves in the National League East.
