Manny Machado: I’ve been trying to figure out how to hustle, don’t know how to do it

"Obviously I'm not going to change, I'm not the type of player that's going to be 'Johnny Hustle,' and run down the line and slide to first base and … you know, whatever can happen," Machado said in the interview, which was published in The Athletic. "That's just not my personality, that's not my cup of tea, that's not who I am.
"Should I have run on that pitch? Yeah … but I didn't and I gotta pay the consequences for it. It does look bad. It looks terrible. I look back at the video and I'm like, 'Whoa, what was I doing?'"
"I've been thinking about it, and it happens every time. There's no excuse for it, honestly," Machado told Rosenthal. "I've never given excuses for not running. I'm not hurt, there's no excuse. But I've been the same player … I've been doing this for [seven] years, I'm in The Show for [seven] years, I've done the same thing for [seven] years, I've been the same player."
"Should I have given it a little more effort? One hundred percent. [It's] my fault like always, I mean that's just my mentality when I'm in the game. [There are] things that you learn, things that you gotta change. I've tried changing it for eight years, and I still can't figure it out but, one of these days I will."

Is it that crazy to think this guy thrives on staying calm and seeing the game slowly, and there is one huge negative to that skill?

Just another alcoholic Dominican baseball player with elite talent that don't give a shite.

A player that admits to not hustling, which is baseball101.
Whomever he signs with, if I were a fan, i wouldn’t be too happy because you know he’s going to take a nosedive as soon as that ink is dried.
The red flags are there. Good luck, future club
