While the San Diego Padres cut payroll over the winter by trading outfielder Juan Soto, several high-priced veterans are still with the club. One is third baseman Manny Machado. He’s under contract through 2033 to the tune of $350 million. Manny also has one of the sweeter right-handed swings in the game and it generates quite a bit of power. So, we’ll be monitoring his progress in the power department this year with our 2024 Manny Machado Home Run Tracker.
Machado is fresh off entering the 300-homer club in 2023. Since joining the Padres in 2019, he’s surpassed the 30-homer plateau three times. It’s happened each of the past two seasons, as well. If you’re interested in getting a detailed look at his 30 homers from last year, you can view our tracker here.
This tracker will work just like it did last year. Every time Manny goes yard, we’ll update the post with the opponent, date, distance, and exit velocity of the dinger, as well as a video of it. Will he hit 30-plus home runs for the eighth time in his MLB career? Keep checking back to find out.
