Three Hundred Million Freaking Dollars!
For Manny Machado!!
He played in the World Series last year...
...got one hit!
He made waves during the playoffs because he stepped on the first-baseman’s foot, on purpose. Then he caught grief for not running out ground balls.
Said: “I ain’t ever gonna’ be Johnny Hustle.”
At the start of the off-season the Yankees kicked around signing him. I didn’t care one way or another. He is a good player with a lot of power. The Yankees have enough good players to keep him in line.
Yet, they have Andujar as well, and he is also a good player who makes $299, 400 less.
He runs hard too.
It’s the highest contract in professional sports...
...ever!
And he’s on the San Diego Padres.
No World Series to worry about!
(And the Padres have a good farm system so maybe it’ll work sometime in ten years, but man!
Here’s the kicker:
Bryce Harper will beat that contract by the end of the week.
Hope it ain’t the Yankees there either.
Harper has had 1 good year so far.
$300 million dollars!
That’s a lot of scratch.
