San Diego Padres DFS SPIN
Manny Machado went 1-for-5 with an RBI on Monday in his return to the Padres’ lineup. Machado laced an RBI single to center field off Cardinals’ dominant reliever Ryan Helsley in the top of the ninth inning in his return to San Diego’s lineup after missing a pair of contests due to right elbow soreness that wound up requiring a cortisone injection to mitigate. The 29-year-old fantasy superstar is hitting .353/.432/.572 with 35 runs scored, eight home runs, 28 RBI and seven stolen bases across 199 plate appearances this season.
St. Louis Cardinals DFS Spin
Nolan Gorman went 3-for-3 with his second homer and a walk Monday as the Cardinals topped the Padres 6-3. Gorman already has three three-hit games in eight starts (10 appearances) since being called up on May 20. He’s 12-for-31 with seven RBI and a 1.149 OPS.
