Manny Machado Goes Hitless Against Brewers
5 years agoSan Diego Padres third baseman Manny Machado went 0-for-3 with an RBI and a pair of strikeouts in Tuesday's 9-0 win over the Milwaukee Brewers. The 27-year old continues to struggle at the plate this spring, as he has not collected a hit since crushing a home run in his Cactus League first at-bat. Since then, Machado has gone 0-for-10 with three walks. The former Baltimore Oriole is no stranger to Spring Training struggles, as he hit just .244 last year and has hit under .250 on three other occasions. Despite being a relatively disappointing year, Machado still managed to hit 32 home runs in 2019. A full season hitting behind Fernando Tatis Jr. and Tommy Pham should help boost his RBI totals as well. He will provide owners good value at his ADP of 57.
