4 years agoSan Diego Padres third baseman Manny Machado hit a walk-off grand slam Wednesday against the Texas Rangers. Down 2-3 with the bases juiced, Machado unloaded on a full count from closer Rafael Montero to secure the Friars victory. The 28-year-old finished 2-for-5 overall. With mediocre batted-ball outcomes, Machado is slashing just .222/.325/.455 in 114 plate appearances but has accumulated six homers, two steals and 39 runs-plus-RBI. With an xwOBA of .364 and strong plate discipline, Machado’s luck should positively turn. His balanced category contribution keeps him a reliable option at the hot corner.--Andrew Le - RotoBaller
