It seems like just yesterday that idiot Dan Clark was announcing that his source said Machado would be signing with the New York Yankees within the week. What a happy day that was. I remember reading the string of quote tweets from Yankees Twitter, whipping around to my coworker and exclaiming “F— yea! Machado is gonna be a Yankee!”
He’s a New York Mets fan so I suppose it wasn’t very kind of me to rub my team’s massive offseason victory in his face.
I now believe it possible that the karmic retribution for that action is the long-winded, never-ending, and always contradicting string of Machado rumors I’m tormented by today.
