Manny Machado makes mild impact in Padres' loss to Giants

Manny Machado went 2-for-4 with an RBI in the Padres' 6-3 loss to the Giants.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the multi-hit game, Machado failed to score or significantly impact the Padres' offensive output. His season-long performance remains solid, maintaining a .276 batting average with 25 homers and 90 RBI over 135 games. His consistent power and run production keep him relevant in fantasy lineups, although his lack of walks and moderate strikeout rate limit his upside in OBP leagues. Moving forward, Machado's ability to contribute across multiple categories will continue to hold value, but fantasy managers might crave a bit more in terms of on-base skills to maximize their roster's potential.
