AT&T Park is the most vegetarian-friendly ballpark in the big leagues

At least according to PETA, which last week ranked the top 10 most veggie-friendly ballparks. I’m just seeing it now, which is rather shocking. PETA is not normally the sort of organization that is bad about letting people know what they’re doing.

Anyway: the top 10:

1. AT&T Park
2. Citizens Bank Park
3. PNC Park
4. Citi Field
5. Nationals Park
6. Coors Field
7. Safeco Field
8. Fenway Park
9. Rogers Centre
10.Turner Field

Not too surprising about AT&T or Citizen Bank — San Francisco has been at the top of this list a couple of times and Philly was #1 a couple of years ago — and the Braves make total sense given that they have a Waffle House on-site. They’re not vegan, but you can totally veg-out on waffles.

Jon Heyman has been hot on the free agent trail today, reporting that the Padres have made offers both Manny Machado and Bryce Harper. The offer to Machado is believed to be for eight years and about $250 million, while the offer to Harper is believed to be for more than that.

Heyman was reporting on Harper earlier, tweeting that the Phillies are the favorite to sign him. He added this evening that Harper has multiple long-term offers at more than $30 million annually. Regarding Machado, Heyman noted that while Machado was believed to have had a preference for the East coast, he will go for the best deal now, which puts the Padres firmly in the picture.

The Padres reportedly met with Machado last week. A late entrant into the sweepstakes, the club has shown the willingness to spend, signing Eric Hosmer to an eight-year, $144 million contract last year. If he goes to San Diego, Machado would be the full-time third baseman with Luis Urias handling shortstop.

Nothing appears close, but we’ll take anything resembling a spark to light the hot stove.
