Machado went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 7-3 win over the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

The third baseman capped off a six-run seventh inning for San Diego with a solo shot to follow Fernando Tatis' grand slam. Machado has gone yard three times in the last eight games, adding seven RBI and three runs scored in that span. For the year, he's slashing .242/.327/.423 with nine homers, 38 RBI, 29 runs scored and six stolen bases.

Machado went 1-for-4 with an RBI in Wednesday's loss to the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

Machado notched his 37th RBI of the season following an RBI single in the bottom of the third inning that scored Tommy Pham, but he would remain silent the rest of the way. The star third baseman has hit safely in nine of the Padres' last 12 games, though, and he has racked up two homers, nine RBI and a .846 OPS during that stretch.

Machado went 2-for-3 with a home run and three RBI in Monday's 9-4 win over the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

The 28-year-old plated his first two runs of the night on a pair of sacrifice flies before taking reliever Cory Abbott deep for a solo blast in the eighth inning. Having now left the yard twice in his last three starts, Machado is up to eight home runs on the season, good for sole possession of second place on the Padres behind standout shortstop Fernando Tatis (17).

Machado is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

Machado had started at third base in each of the Padres' last six games following his recent return from a shoulder injury. While he appears to have escaped any setbacks with the shoulder in those contests, he'll be sitting Sunday in what likely amounts to a pre-planned maintenance day. Ha-Seong Kim will pick up a start at the hot corner in Machado's stead.

Machado went 1-for-3 with a home run, an additional RBI and a walk in Friday's win over the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

Machado has hit safely in seven of his last eight games, and he also ended a 10-game homer drought with his first-inning blast, his seventh of the season. The star infielder also plated the other Padres run when he drew a bases-loaded walk in the seventh.

Machado is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

Machado will get at least the beginning of the series finale off. The third baseman returned from a shoulder injury late last week, so Sunday's rest appears to be an effort to ease him back into the swing of things slowly.

Machado (shoulder) will serve as the designated hitter in Friday's game against the Astros, Dennis Lin of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Machado had served as a pinch hitter in each of the last two games, but he'll return to the lineup as the DH in Houston. The Padres are hopeful that Machado will be able to return to third base Saturday.

Machado (shoulder) isn't starting Thursday's game against the Brewers.

EDGE Analysis

Machado entered Wednesday's game as a pinch hitter, but he'll be excluded from the lineup for a seventh straight contest due to a sore shoulder. Ha-Seong Kim will start at third base and bat eighth.

Machado (shoulder) is not starting Wednesday's game against the Brewers, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

His shoulder soreness will keep him out of the lineup once again, as he hasn't played since May 19. Either the injury is lingering longer than anticipated or the Padres expect Machado to return in the next couple days, because the star third baseman is approaching 10 days since the injury, yet he has not been placed on the injured list. There was talk of Machado being available as a pinch hitter Tuesday, so he does appear close to being ready.

Manager Jayce Tingler said that Machado (shoulder) will hit prior to Tuesday's game against the Brewers and could be available off the bench, depending on how he feels, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

While Machado will be absent from the Friars' starting nine for the fifth consecutive game, Tingler's update indicates that the star third baseman could return to the lineup as soon as Wednesday, assuming all goes well with his Tuesday hitting session.
