| Voldemort (L); Nosferatu (R) |
Think
Voldemort setting up a lunch date with
Nosferatu. That's
kind of like what will take place this Wednesday when
the despicable Manny Machado meets with Yankee ownership—presumably
Hal Steinbrenner (the
Tweedle-Dumb to his brother's
Tweedle-Dumber). The bottom line is that these two parties were
made for each other. What other MLB player is so perfectly-attuned to a team than Machado is to
The Evil Ones—what with his dirty play, lack of hustle and general all-around loathsomeness? They are a match made in baseball Hell. The spiking of
Dustin Pedroia, the
further obstruction on the base-paths in the recent playoffs and his general snarky attitude make him the
perfect Bronx Embalmer. Plus, he already knows how to pathetically strike out to end a playoff series—a role the Yankees will need to fill
often down the road.
