7 years agoThe Philadelphia Phillies shave increased their offer for Baltimore Orioles shortstop Manny Machado, according to sources. However, the Yankees and Dodgers offers remain the strongest, with the Brewers fading and the Diamondbacks now on the periphery. Machado is far and away the biggest trade deadline piece of the season, and he might be one of the most valuable real-life and fantasy assets in 2018, too. Wherever he lands will be a big boost to his numbers after playing for the last-place Orioles in the first half. Whenever he's traded, expect Tim Beckham to move to the 6 in Baltimore and Danny Valencia to see most of the starts at third base.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
