Manny Machado says he made "the best decision" and will have knee surgery rather than return to the Baltimore Orioles this season. had Machado unable to make it back when his stint on the disabled list expired next week. Treatment on an injured right knee hadn't produced results. Fears Machado would need surgery, mirroring the one he had on his left knee last October, proved true when the team announced his decision.So it's off to Los Angeles, where Dodgers team physician Dr. Neal ElAttrache will again put the blade to Machado, the Orioles' third baseman Tommy Hunter Jersey . Surgery will take place next week, according to , although there was no date set by the team or Machado in meeting with media members. The Orioles Odubel Herrera Jersey are in Chicago completing a three-game series.Machado, 22, damaged a ligament on Aug. 11. The injury and surgery will be earlier in the year than his left knee problem. It's po sible Machado will be ready for the O's 2015 opener. He mi sed this season's first month in rehab.It's not a good situation for the team, which is driving for the playoffs and leading the AL East."Obviously, with the position we're in now, you don't want to hear about surgery. You want to try and get back out there on the field and be back with the team and help the team get the playoffs," Machado said."It's been a couple weeks now and the pain hasn't gotten any better, so I think it was just the best decision to get it done now rather than later and wait like we did last year."Orioles officials also met the media about Machado's surgery, according to . Among quotes it pa ses along are a series from executive vice president Dan Duquette."Our original approach was to have him rest and then to try to play and then see if he could play ball," Duquette said. "We also knew there was a chance of a recurrence. Given this Will Middlebrooks Jersey injury and the time of the season, we thought that we would rest it and try to recover and come back and play for the rest of the year. But Manny didn't feel that was the best option."Next question: What do the Orioles do in the meantime? Chris Davis is playing third for now, and neither Duquette nor Pat Neshek Jersey manager Buck Showalter wanted to suggest the team would seek a fill-in via trade."There's a very limited pool of players that are available this time of the year because a lot of players' contracts don't get through the trade waiver proce s, so it's a very limited pool," Duquette said, "but I think we have some pretty good depth in-house and we've had some players step up like Steve Pearce and do a good job and we're going to continue to need players to step up in this situation."Showalter's take: "There's going to be times that we are going to have some things happen at third or first that may not be. Everybody has got strengths and weakne ses. If I know this club, we will pick up slack, just like we did when he wasn't here."Machado is no pedestrian third baseman. He was the AL's best at his Darren Daulton Jersey position last season and was named the AL's best defensive player. Davis normally plays first. Pearce is getting action there while Davis moves acro s the diamond. Other options, according to , are Ryan Flaherty and Jonathan Schoop. They usually split time at second base.
