If Baltimore offered Machado to the Sox for Yolmer, Robert, and Cease AND Machado would agree to a 10 year, $275M deal, would you do it?

No, mainly because there's no way he signs that deal when he's so close to free agency he can taste it, but also because it makes no sense to give up that kind of talent for him. It's not like he's the missing piece of an otherwise championship ballclub, here.

No, but the Sox system is loaded in OF’s & Sanchez is probably a sub in 2021.

Furthermore, Machado is probably going to get 27.5-30M/year in free agency anyway, so it’s not like he’s being lowballed in this scenario.

If the Sox moved for Machado, you can bet Tim Anderson would be 1 of the players going back (to replace him at SS). They would probably want two pitchers in a deal. Think Tim A + Cease + Stephens. Don't wanna do that. I am sorry this is just not the time to worry with trying to bring in one star guy. Sox will end up right back where they were a few years ago....a couple stars, and average players leading to mediocrity. Lets build the foundation THEN see if we need to add a final piece.

Especially with the way he's hit this season, I fully expect Machado will get 10/$350 with a bunch of silly contract gimmicks like opt outs and such.

Anderson + Cease + anything else is absolutely ridiculous for three months of Machado.  No way they get close to that much IMO.

Also, Engel is one frustrating player.

Someone tell Machado the plan is for Engel not to be on the roster next year..lol

I really dont think it matters how many shitty players we remove from this team. He's not coming here.
