This week, there’s been a lot of buzz surrounding Manny Machado’s appearance at the Orioles’ minicamp. After season-ending surgery in 2014, the third baseman explained that he’s itching to get back out there.
In just 82 games this season, Machado reminded fans about his flashy, award-winning defense.
