Maybe don't boo Manny Machado.
Brewers fans didn't take that advice on Wednesday and booed the $300-million player as the Padres were taking on Milwaukee at San Diego's spring training facility.
Manny Machado lustily booed at his own yard. There might be some Brewers fans here in Peoria today.

Machado promptly homered in the same at-bat.
Oh yeah, Manny's ready. ??#PadresST | #FriarFaithful | @Padres pic.twitter.com/4h4INhM1Jh

Brewers fans got all they could handle of Machado last season during the National League Championship Series when the third baseman was playing with the Dodgers.
The team accused Machado as being part of Los Angeles' plan to steal signs during the series, and the 26-year-old kicked first baseman Jesus Aguilar when he was passing him on a groundout.

The Padres and Brewers will face off for the first time in the regular season in San Diego on June 17. The teams will play at Miller Park in Milwaukee in a three-game series on Sept. 17.
The reception is likely to be the same from the Brewers' faithful.
