<font color='black' size='2' face='arial'>OK, l<font color="black" face="arial" size="2">et's chatter about it. Seems consistent with his minor league numbers to me. If you go back and see when I sent the e-mail in which I said his "sell by" date was about to expire, I think that's right about when reality reared its ugly head for this youngster. Of course, that won't stop his contract from beginning to run. I predict he'll be a solid major leaguer in about 2 or 3 years.

Is it just me, or is there a lot less chatter about Manny Machado now that he is hitting .227 ?
