6 years agoBaltimore Orioles shortstop Manny Machado provided half of the Orioles' runs in Thursday's 4-2 extra-inning loss to the Mariners, going 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk. Machado launched a fourth-inning Mike Leake hanging breaking ball into the left-field seats for his 20th HR of the season. The 25-year-old phenom has cooled off in June but is still hitting an excellent .303 with 56 RBI on the season. Machado has been a top fantasy option while playing on one of the worst teams in baseball and as a top trade candidate could soon find himself in a better offense, increasing his value even more.--Connelly Doan - RotoBaller
