The Phillies http://www.oriolesfanproshop.com/authentic-j.j.-hardy-jersey , Yankees and Chicago White Sox are the three teams that have been prominently linked to Manny Machado this offseason. Vinnie Duber of NBC Sports Chicago recently laid out the case for him to land on the South Side of Chicago:"The White Sox seem to remain in good position to actually win this thing. They have made their offer, while it's unclear if other teams have or haven't. They have a strong pitch of Machado as the centerpiece playing alongside Eloy Jimenez, Michael Kopech, Dylan Cease, Luis Robert and others for the better part of the next decade. They can offer what no other team can in the opportunity to play alongside Yonder Alonso and Jon Jay, two of Machado's good friends from Miami and, in Alonso's case, his brother-in-law."After a flurry of reports emerged that the White Sox's offer was for $175 million over seven years, Machado's agent Adam Jones Jersey , Dan Lozano, released a statement (via Mark Feinsand of MLB.com) in which he called those reports "inaccurate and reckless" and panned the media's handling of the situation.The rebuilding White Sox seem ready to turn a corner, and with a loaded farm system and a bright future, their pitch is a compelling one. It would be a transformative move for the franchise, and the steep price it will take to get a deal done looks like one worth paying.We'll say an eight-year deal with an annual value of $34 million gets Machado in a White Sox jersey.Bryce Harper: Returns to the Nationals on a 10-Year, $350 Million Deal8 of 8Dustin Bradford/Getty ImagesThere's a good chance Bryce Harper is going to wait until Manny Machado signs to let him set the market. If Machado winds up with a $34 million annual salary, Harper is going to want $35 million-plus. That's just how this thing works.So if we're predicting an eight-year, $272 million deal for Machado, would two extra years and an extra $1 million annually be enough to get Harper to sign on the dotted line?The Nationals offered Harper a 10-year Manny Machado Jersey , $300 million deal in September that he turned down, according to Chelsea Janes of the Washington Post.Jim Bowden of The Athletic reported at the beginning of January that the Nationals had made another offer that was "much more" than their initial proposal.So even though the Nats gave left-hander Patrick Corbin a six-year, $140 million contract in early December, it sounds like they are still willing to spend.Once the dust settles on a Machado deal and Harper has a better idea of his target contract, Washington could move quickly to make its final offer and try to bring back its homegrown star.Based on these predictions, that means the Phillies would wind up without either superstar, an outcome that seemed impossible when the offseason began. Now it at least looks like a reasonable bold prediction. All stats courtesy of Baseball Reference and FanGraphs unless otherwise noted.

These categories are generally more of a collective effort, because the unassisted double-play is quite a rarity. Indeed, of the 149 double-plays records on defense by Arizona this season, only three required the efforts of just one player: curiously, all of them took place in August [two lineouts to first-base, and another to short]. All the others required two or more players to execute http://www.oriolesfanproshop.com/authentic-j.j.-hardy-jersey , but there were still a variety. Below you’ll find the best examples of strike ‘em out, throw ‘em out DPs and also outfield assists, as well as a selection of the more traditional ones, executed around the infield.
