Baltimore Orioles: Looking forward to the new double-play combo
By now, the fact that Baltimore Orioles Manny Machado will be the shortstop in 2018 is old news.
But, what isn’t old news is that the Baltimore Orioles now have what is considered the second-best double-play combination in the MLB.
With Machado and Jonathan Schoop filling in the middle, it is safe to say that fans will be treated to some unbelievable double plays in 2018.
This exciting ranking came via MLB.com and was reported by Anthony Castrovince. The double-play duo was second only to another highlight-reel-worthy duo: Jose Altuve and Carlos Correa. In the rest of the top five, the combos were from the Cleveland Indians, Los Angeles Dodgers, and Washington Nationals.
