Manny Machado shines in Padres' shutout victory
by Chris Schommer | Padres Correspondent | Sun, Jul 14th 8:12am EDT
Manny Machado went 3-for-4 in the Padres' 4-0 win over the Braves with a home run, two runs scored, and one RBI.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance underscores a solid season for Machado, who has now hit .267 with 13 homers and 52 RBI through 90 games. His consistent ability to drive in runs and score himself remains a key asset for fantasy managers. Despite a relatively modest walk rate and a higher-than-ideal strikeout rate, his slugging capabilities, as evidenced by today's home run, help maintain his value in all fantasy formats. Fantasy managers should continue to view Machado as a reliable starting option at third base, particularly in leagues that value power hitting.
