I know I will. Him and his $300M/10 year contract has albatross headache written all over it. If Cashman-Hal falls for it, then they must be the stupidest people on earth. After seeing all these large contracts turn out badly over the years. Pujols, Crawford, Ellsbury, Cano, Hamilton, Heyward, Arod, Tex, Panda, Cabrera, Choo, Vernon Wells, Swisher, etc.

Fool the Yankees once, shame on you. Fool the Yankees twice (and more), shame on Cashman-Hal.

Nobody likes a smartass.   Have a nice holiday anyway

Merry Christmas Big. Hope you're getting better and stronger every day

Same to you and your family, and a Happy New Year.  I feel pretty good, getting stronger even though I still have this hose hanging from me. At least I'm driving again.

I will be happy when he signs with another team. In a few years Andujar will be just as good or better than Machado will be. We need pitching not a 10 year contract.

Anyone against acquiring machado is foolish. He’s a 26 year old .300 hitter that fills a huge need in the middle of the infield. Maybe he could actually get a hit with runners in scoring position... yanks would be grateful to have manny sign and I’m all for it

I think his baggage may be a bit overblown...  I think he meant he wasn't a "charlie hustle" (Pete Rose) type. Only he knows his intent on the spiking incidents, but he has had incidents in the past with Boston. That is the only problem I really have heard about regarding Machado. He would be a huge upgrade at 3rd. (Sorry,Papa) I'd be ok with signing him.

Hey we actually agree on something.  The media overblew the whole Machado thing, outside of that series I've never heard of him being a dirty player.  And it's the play-offs, you expect players to try to do anything to win.  No one on here hated Arod after the slap play, not that I recall anyway.

I wouldn't mind if he signs with us. Truth be told, most guys don't bust ass like they used to. Too much $$$ at stake, and it's hard to fault them.  Merry Christmas, Yankees.

Merry Christmas and happy New Years!  Let's hope the Yankees start new years right with signing Machado.

I'd be happy with the signing, but we aren't in the majority on that.

To me, where there's smoke, there's fire.
