Massive game for Manny Machado
by Chris Zolli | Padres Correspondent | Sun, May 8th 5:53pm EDT
Manny Machado was 2-for-4 with a walk, two home runs, two runs scored, and six RBI against the Athletics on Sunday. This was Machado's first multi-home run game of the season, but was his second five RBI performance in the last 10 games. Machado has a 1.094 OPS and 24 extra-base hits this season.
Fantasy Impact:
Machado has had multi-hit games in seven of his last 10 games, posting multiple extra-base hits in three of those seven games. He leads the American League with his 1.094 OPS and his 22 RBI rank eighth in the league while his 24 runs scored rank fourth. As if Machado's value could not be any higher, he has continued to play SS while J.J. Hardy is on the disabled list, giving him the opportunity for dual eligibility in 2016 and beyond.
