Manny Machado's Nightmare August Continues
5 years agoSan Diego Padres third baseman Manny Machado went 0-for-2 before being lifted in Friday’s blowout loss to the Boston Red Sox. Machado is still looking for his first homer in August as he endures a brutal month, slashing .197/.247/.224 with just two extra-base hits. The swoon has his season OPS down to .801. For the year the 27-year-old superstar has popped 26 dingers with four stolen bases and 138 runs-plus-RBI. While the track record suggests the slump is temporary, fantasy owners would appreciate his contributions down the stretch.
