The big fish in the MLB trade market is Baltimore Orioles shortstop Manny Machado. The dumbass Orioles, of course, didn’t move him during the offseason but are finally making the long overdue decision to sell before the July 31st trade deadline.
The Phillies, Dodgers, Yankees, and Brewers are the teams rumored to be in the running for Machado’s services, but what does Manny want? His Instagram activity last week indicated that he wouldn’t mind pinstripes as he liked a photoshop of himself in a Yankees jersey on Instagram:

What does this mean? According to Manny, absolutely nothing. He told media Monday it was just a mistake and that he’s liked all sorts of photoshops:

A fair response, but let’s be real. Most people (I think) quickly correct their mistake when they accidentally like something on IG.
Yankees reliever Aroldis Chapman decided to stoke the flames a bit later by posting this photo of Manny with some possible future teammates of his:
