    That could happen. I read he has a 5 year opt-out.

    It truly is unacceptable the Yankees were never a player for Machado...with a cheap core...in a title drought....after Boston just won.

    I can’t even believe how player friendly the opt out is. be good and be gone. or be shit (like cueto and melancon) and keep raking in the dough.

    Doubt he's going to get a better deal at 31 years old. He might have to stay unless they trade him.

    Not the way contracts are going. Especially for the middle of the road players who are still unsigned

    Yep.
    Like David Price this year with the Sox. Had an opt out, but right after the WS said he wasn't exercising it. 
    Was asked last week if he had any 2nd thoughts about it, his reply..."have you seen what's happening in free agency?". He wasn't getting more money elsewhere and knew it, and quite possibly that will be the case for Machado in 5 yrs.
    This weekend we rock Portland

    5 years will be a new CBA, so anything can happen, but assuming people continue to age as they are, I'd agree.

    Whoa. This hicks deal. I think I love the dollars but it is a little long. Still, your starting centefielders for $10mil ain’t bad

    Especially when you see what free agency looks like for center fielders after this season.

    No. Unless the National league gets a DH. He's better off here. Or if he has out of this world numbers

    Yeah and if he does kill it, maybe they tack on a year or so to keep him...

    No. If he opts out they'll let him go. And maybe give Judge or Sanchez some kind of deal instead of going through arbitration. Unless they do that now with Judge. I don't think they went to arbitration yet right? I'm thinking he's gonna get $15+ million this year if he wins arbitration

    With the way the extensions are going with them, I bet they give Judge a nice $150 mil + deal after this season. Maybe 2 or 3 seasons of free agency?

    It was surprising that they gave Severino an extension. That's not something they do
