I was shocked to read
TSN's article on their top 50 list of FAs, and they had Machado at #1 over Harper (primarily due to position scarcity). They had him going to the Yanks and Harper going to the Phillies. Personally I wouldn't care about position scarcity if I were NY, I'd still go for the generation talent of Harper for the same rough price as his bat is something else. Machado is the type of guy who'd call it a night the second that contract is signed.
