In 2018, after a lackadaisacal trot to 1st base, he famously said, "I'm not the player who's going to be 'Johnny Hustle'...That's just not my personality, that's not my cup of tea, that's not who I am."

And get the Padres still gave him a 11 year, $350 million dollar contract.

Srednik notes this slug ended Red Sox great and one of the best second basemen to ever play the game Dustin Pedroia’s career with a dirty slide when he played for Baltimore.

The Dodgers were expecting Corey Seager to come back at 100% from his injury (he did) and Gavin Lux coming up rapidly through the minors. And Justin Turner and Max Muncy were already playing third base.
There was no need to re-sign Machado under any circumstances.
