Manny Machado Serving One-Game Suspension Tuesday
5 years agoSan Diego Padres infielder Manny Machado lost his appeal of a one-game suspension and will sit out of Tuesday's game against the San Francisco Giants. Machado was appealing a suspension for an altercation with an umpire on June 15. In his place, Greg Garcia will start at third and bat ninth. The lefty hitter is batting .281 with three homers and 19 RBI, which bodes well against RHP Tyler Beede of the Giants. He can provide some salary relief in DFS, especially in late slate contests. Machado will return on Wednesday to face off with Giants righty Shaun Anderson.
