Manny Machado - Page 8 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Powers offense Friday Machado went 4-for-4 with two home runs and three RBI in Friday's 4-2 win over the Cardinals.

Impact Machado twice put the Padres ahead with a solo shot in the sixth-inning and a two-run blast in the eighth. The third baseman now has five long balls over 15 games in September, giving him 30 homers for the second consecutive season. It's also the seventh time he's reached that mark in his career. He's added a .253/.316/.465 slash line, 87 RBI, 75 runs scored and three stolen bases through 134 contests. Machado continues to be locked in at designated hitter due to an elbow injury that is likely to need surgery, but he'll probably remain in the Padres' lineup at least until they're mathematically eliminated from playoff contention.

Returns to lineup Machado (elbow) is in the designated hitter spot and batting fourth versus the Rockies on Wednesday in his return to action, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Impact Machado has been out of the lineup a few times this month and has been limited to DH duty when he does play because of a nagging elbow issue which will likely require surgery eventually. He'll gut it out for this one, though.

Out of lineup Tuesday Machado (elbow) is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Rockies.

Impact Machado served as the Padres' designated hitter in Monday's series opener versus Colorado, but he has an elbow injury that will eventually require surgery and could be facing an early shutdown. Juan Soto will take a turn in the DH role Tuesday as Eguy Rosario covers third base.

Impact Machado will serve as the designated hitter in Monday's game against the Rockies, so he will not shut things down immediately and will presumably continue playing as long as the Padres remain in playoff contention. However, his season could come to an early end at some point, and if he undergoes the procedure his absence could extend into next season, as according to Marty he would likely be looking at a 6-to-7 month recovery timetable.

Gets Saturday off Machado will be on the bench for Saturday's game against Oakland.

Impact Machado finds himself on the bench for the third time in six games. That might be related to the elbow soreness which has limited him to designated hitter duty throughout September; with the Padres now 6.5 games out of the final Wild Card spot, they aren't incentivized to push Machado at all and risk further injury. Luis Campusano will be the designated hitter Saturday, with Brett Sullivan taking Campusano's usual spot behind the plate.

For the season, he's up to 28 homers, 84 RBI, 72 runs scored, three stolen bases and a .252/.315/.460 slash line over 128 contests.

Goes deep in loss Friday Machado went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk Friday in a loss to the Brewers.

Impact Machado smashed a 404-foot solo shot to center field in the fourth inning for San Diego's first run. The third baseman has picked up his power of late, going deep four times over his past six games. He's now at 25 homers on the season, a mark he's reached every year since 2015 with the exception of the condensed 2020 campaign.

Hits 24th homer Machado went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in Monday's 6-2 victory versus Miami.

Impact Machado produced the game's first run with a first-inning sacrifice fly and tacked on a solo shot to center field in the fifth frame. The long ball was his third over his past three contests following a cold 12-game stretch during which he went homerless and batted .146. Though Machado's season .251/.317/.462 slash line is well below his norm, he's still been pretty productive with 24 home runs and 74 RBI over 476 plate appearances.

Goes yard twice in matinee Machado went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs in a 6-4 loss to the Diamondbacks during the first game of Saturday's doubleheader.

Impact Getting the start at DH due to accumulated bumps and bruises, including a bout of elbow soreness, Machado's swing seemed to be in peak form as he took Merrill Kelly deep to left field in the first inning before slicing a Kevin Ginkel fastball over the right-field wall in the eighth. Machado was back at third base for the nightcap, and while he went 0-for-4, the fact that he was feeling well enough to play defense is another strong sign his health issues are minor.

At DH again due to tennis elbow Machado is serving as the designated hitter for the Padres for the second straight game Friday due to soreness in his right elbow, Jeff Sanders of the San Diego Union-Tribune repor...

Impact It's tennis elbow that Machado is dealing with and is something he battles from time to time, including last May when he missed a little some with the injury. Machado has also been relegated to the DH role recently due to a tight hamstring. He's batted only .175/.262/.298 so far in August. Ha-Seong Kim is at third base Friday.

AUGUST 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Managing hamstring tightness Machado is batting cleanup and serving as the Padres' designated hitter for the second straight day Monday as he deals with a tight right hamstring.

Impact According to Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union Tribune, Machado tweaked his right hamstring while running from first to third base in the eighth inning of Saturday's contest. The issue wasn't serious enough to keep him out Sunday's lineup, but he served as San Diego's DH rather than taking his usual spot at third base. That will be the case again Monday, as Ha-Seong Kim will start at third while Jake Cronenworth plays second.
