If the Dodgers intend on keeping Manny, they should convince him to back to third where his defense is among the elite.

This is another reason why his value should be less. He only wants to play SS.

The whole reason he wants to play SS is because hes more valuable at that position since theres far fewer good hitting shortstops than third basemen

Manny wanted to play SS because of the money. His plate metrics give him an easy case to be the highest paid SS in all of baseball. But I'm sure the Dodgers' fat wallet can convince him to move his ass back to 3B where he belongs.

I look at the individual, not the position.

Well that's not how he'll be looked at in the offseason by 30 different MLB teams.

He'll get paid, I just don't think the deal will pay off.

Manny has said with the dodgers he'll play third and short, hes here to win

He's a great player and great person. Loved his interviews so far. He has said all the right things

He's going to get paid and some team will be lucky to have him

I heard him spewing off like an idiot at the Red Sox that one time when we threw at him. Sure, it was stupid we did it but constantly swearing like that is just immature. I've seen the guy play. He's not a nice guy. Holds his head high like he's king. See a bunch of problems coming from him.

Like I said, Dodgers bias. No offense, but you do this every time. Corey Seager, Kenley Jensen, Mike Muncy. You overvalued all these guys just because they're Dodgers. You're doing the same with Machado.

I honestly hope the Rox win the division so we can see the true side of the Dodgers and this trade flop.

David Price once talked a ton of shit about the Red Sox too.

how am I over valuing a top 10 position player who will get a 10/300M deal lol

And of course he went off on the red Sox. They threw at his head

I know. Manny could easily change. My point is it's all talk but it makes him look bad. I don't consider Price to be very likable either.

If you pay this guy 300 million over 10 years then you're already shooting yourself. Guy has hit over .300 once in his career.

It's inflation.
