Machado Trade Idea

Orioles get Brett Gardner, Jordan Montgomery, Estevan Florial, Tyler Wade, and Miguel Andujar

Yankees get Manny Machado and Darren O'Day

I'll be honest, you did good with proposed Abreu trade, but this is a miss. Not what the Orioles are looking for.

How can I make it better? I though the logic was pretty sound. I know the rumor is that they want 2 controllable pitchers but that doesn’t mean that’s what they’re going to get. Montgomery is a young controllable pitcher who is big league tested. Andujar and Wade are MLB ready replacements for Machado and Hardy. Florial is a high ceiling prospect that should be ready for the big leagues just as Adam Jones’ contract runs out. And Brett Gardner is a nice one year rental that is a great club house influence and will play Gold Glove Left Field as well as provide a quality lead off hitter which is a void the Orioles haven’t been able to fill for a long time. O’Day is just a way to offset Gardner’s salary. If the Orioles are trading Machado than they are rebuilding and they don’t need a high priced reliever.

The Orioles owner has been so adamant against the Yankees getting Machado. He's being so careful that he doesn't want to trade him to a team that would so much as trade him to NY themselves.

Knowing that, the Yankees would need to offer Torres, Judge, Sanchez, Bird, and Severino.

Realistically, I don't envision a way the Yankees could trade for him.

Machado won't be traded to the Yankees. Their owner said he won't deal with them.

Yeah I read that too after I posted this. However, hypothetically would it be a fair deal if that wasn’t the case?

It's not a fair deal for Machado either way.

I'm a Yankees fan, but there's no way in hell this happens.
