The Manny Machado trade, which happened over the All-Star break and sent the star to the Los Angeles Dodgers, wasn't a surprise to anyone. There was no doubt the Baltimore Orioles were going to trade their talented homegrown shortstop who is bound for free agency in a matter of months. In an interview Machado gave to Bob Nightengale of USA Today, he revealed that the Orioles had reached a trade agreement with a team before the All-Star break, and told him days before the public knew about it.
