Manny Machado went 3-for-4 in the Padres' 5-1 victory over the Giants, delivering two home runs, three RBI, two runs scored, and a stolen base.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance underscores Machado's continued relevance as a power-hitting third baseman in fantasy leagues. His two homers bring his season total to 25, and with 89 RBI, he remains a crucial run producer. Despite a batting average that won't wow anyone at .274, his ability to combine power with a decent amount of stolen bases (9 this season) adds valuable versatility. Fantasy managers should continue to view Machado as a solid starting option, especially in categories where power and production are needed.
