Notes
	There is consistent, and then there is Manny Machado. In his age-32 season, Machado played in 159 games, hitting 27 home runs, scoring 91 times, driving in 95, and had a slash line of .275/.335/.460. (His slash line in 2024 was .275/.325/.472.) His home run total was the lowest since 2014 (ignoring 2020), but he actually barreled the ball (12.9%) and had his highest HardHit rate (51.5%) since 2021. The Padres lineup is aging, but Machado is still projected to bat behind Fernando Tatis Jr. and Jackson Merrill, which should lead to plenty of counting stats. Depending on how you feel about Junior Caminero, Machado is either the second or third-best third baseman in 2026 fantasy baseball and a solid early-round pick. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros
