In a deal that came just three minutes shy of Monday's midnight deadline, the Orioles agreed to terms with third-overall pick Manny Machado, awarding the 17-year-old the second-largest signing bonus in team history. Machado will receive $5.25 million, which is behind only current O's catcher Matt Wieters' $6 million in 2007. The importance of getting Machado -- considered one of three stand-alone talents in this year's Draft -- couldn't be understated for Baltimore scouting director Joe Jordan, who said the bulk of negotiations came in the final hour. http://baltimore.orioles.mlb.com/ne..._id=13543630&vkey=news_bal&fext=.jsp&c_id=bal
