Orioles third baseman Manny Machado is approximately 6-8 weeks ahead of his recovery timetable, a source told the Baltimore Sun. Machado, who underwent left knee surgery in October, had a follow-up exam on Thursday and is expected to be cleared for baseball activities soon.
Manager Buck Showalter also recently said that he is expecting Machado to be ready by opening day. Machado owned a .283/.314/.432 slash line with 14 home runs, 71 RBI and six stolen bases in 667 at-bats for the Orioles in 2013.
