Fallout from Machado to the Padres

It's finally happened. Manny Machado finally signed somewhere. He's going to San Diego on a ten-year, $300 million deal with an option after the fifth season, making for the biggest free agent contract ever. So now what happens after the deal? Who's doing what with Machado off the market?

• San Diego is Ready to Contend: With a weakened NL West, now is the time for San Diego to compete. The best farm system in baseball, which includes Mackenzie Gore and Fernando Tatis Jr., paired with Machado will make for an exciting team (potentially) in the National League. One question that will come to mind: how will Machado fare in the pitcher's haven known as Petco Park?
  
• The White Sox Missed Out on an Opportunity: Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reported that the Chicago White Sox offered Machado a deal for eight years around $250 with incentives and options that would've raised the value to $350 million. However, it wasn't enough as the Padres offered the better deal for Machado. Now the White Sox are left pondering what could've been with a lineup consisting of both Yoan Moncada and Manny Machado.
  
• The Phillies Aren't Sweating a Bit: The Philadelphia Phillies were rumored to be in the Machado sweepstakes, but also missed out. However, Phillies fans shouldn't fret over Machado to the Padres; Philadelphia has added the likes of Andrew McCutchen and Jean Segura in the off-season, bolstering their lineup. They're also the front-runners in the Bryce Harper sweepstakes, so all is not lost in the City of Brotherly Love.
  
• Thank Goodness the Machado Free Agency Saga is Over: One down, one to go. Now that Machado has signed with a team, we now wait for Bryce Harper to sign somewhere. Other dominoes expected to fall right after Machado include Dallas Keuchel and Craig Kimbrel.
