Brandon Dixon announced his retirement from the MLB on Twitter.
Fantasy Impact
Dixon spent five years in the majors with the Reds, Tigers and Padres. He played in 33 games with San Diego last season.
Padres utility player Brandon Dixon is back in the starting lineup Friday versus the Phillies.
Fantasy Impact
Dixon didn't appear in the club's final contest prior to the All-Star break but will start against left-hander Christopher Sanchez on Friday. Dixon has hit .211 with two homers and a .264 wOBA on the season but should get the bulk of DH reps against left-handed pitching with Nelson Cruz being cut loose.
Brandon Dixon will be back on the bench Wednesday night against the Pirates.
Fantasy Impact
Dixon went 2-for-3 with a double, a walk, and a run scored on Tuesday against left-hander Rich Hill but will predictably return to the bench Wednesday against right-hander Mitch Keller. Overall, it hasn't been a great season for Dixon at the plate as he's hitting .238 with two homers, a tiny 1.4% BB%, and a 31.4% K% across 70 plate appearances.
Padres utility player Brandon Dixon is in the starting lineup Thursday versus the Guardians.
Fantasy Impact
The Padres are stacking right-handed hitters against Guardians lefty Logan Allen which gives Dixon the start at first base over Jake Cronenworth. It's been a tough go at the plate for Dixon who is hitting just .212 with two homers, one stolen base, and a .270 wOBA across 58 trips to the plate.
Brandon Dixon hit a solo home run in the 5th inning to help lead the Padres to a 9-6 victory over the Rockies on Friday.
Fantasy Impact
Dixon finished the game 1-for-4 with one run scored, one RBI, and one strikeout. Despite the home run, Dixon's season-long numbers remain underwhelming, as he owns a .212 batting average with just two home runs and five RBI in 20 games played.
