Machado went 3-for-6 with two doubles, two RBI, a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's extra-innings loss to the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
Machado's night was bookended by a pair of doubles in the first and 11th frames. The third baseman added a two-RBI single in the eighth frame, though he also committed a key error that helped the Pirates mount a comeback in the bottom of the ninth inning. Machado is one of the hottest hitters in baseball at the moment, evidenced by his 11-game hitting streak during which he's notched eight multi-hit games and gone 23-for-49 (.469) with six homers, six doubles, 12 RBI and a stolen base.

Machado went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a double in the Padres' 2-0 victory over the Brewers on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
The 26-year-old recorded his 14th long ball of the season with a third-inning solo shot off Jhoulys Chacin to provide one of his team's two runs for the game. He also added his 11th two-bagger of the year to give him a fourth multi-hit effort in his last five games. The hot streak has boosted Machado's slash line up to .264/.346/.464 through 265 at-bats.

Machado was suspended one game and fined Monday after getting ejected for arguing balls and strikes in Saturday's contest, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Machado will appeal the ban, so he'll remain eligible to play Monday against Milwaukee. Greg Garcia will likely get at start at third base if and when he does serve the ban.

Machado was ejected from Saturday's 14-8 loss to the Rockies in the fifth inning after arguing balls and strikes.
EDGE Analysis
He was having another big game, going 2-for-3 with a double and two runs scored before getting tossed, so this was a minor blow to anyone who had rostered Machado in DFS as part of a Coors Field stack. It's still his third straight multi-hit effort at altitude, and the hot streak has pushed his slash line up to .261/.342/.451 on the year.

Machado went 4-for-7 with a home run, a double, two RBI and four runs scored in Friday's 16-12 win at Coors Field.
EDGE Analysis
Machado launched a solo home run off reliever Jake McGee in the seventh inning and added an RBI double to help complete a 12th-inning rally for the win. The 26-year-old has hit three home runs in the last two games. It's been an underwhelming start for Machado in his first season with the Padres, but hopefully he can make this streak last. He's batting .256/.339/.445 with 13 home runs, 38 RBI and 37 runs scored.

Machado went 3-for-5 with two home runs and three RBI in a loss to Colorado on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Machado's first hit was an RBI single in the first inning, and he followed with solo home runs in the fifth and ninth. He had been mired in a 2-for-18 slump, so Thursday's three-hit game was undoubtedly a welcome sign. Even with the big performance, Machado's first campaign in San Diego has thus far been a mild disappointment, as his season slash line now sits at .247/.333/.425.

Machado is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
The Padres' prized offseason pickup will rest for just the second time all season, paving the way for Greg Garcia to draw a start at third base. The day off will provide Machado with an opportunity to hit the reset button after a 10-game stretch in which he went 4-for-37 at the dish.

Machado went 1-for-4 with a grand slam to help the Padres to an 8-2 win over the Phillies on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Machado provided the crucial blow in this contest, touching up Phillies reliever JD Hammer with a grand slam as part of a seven-run sixth inning for San Diego. It was the 10th long ball of the year and first since April 14 for Machado, who still has yet to find his superstar form in his first season with the Padres, as he's slashing .251/.340/.423 through 215 at-bats.
