Dixon Machado Daily Fantasy News, Rankings, Projections

Nick Castellanos scratched Friday; Dixon Machado replaces and will bat seventh

Castellanos has officially been scratched from the Detroit Tigers lineup for tonight's game against the Chicago White Sox due to a presumed wrist issue. He'll be replaced in the said lineup by Dixon Machado, who will take over the third base duties and bat seventh. This lineup change will bump James McCann all up to the five-spot from his original batting position of seventh. However, the remainder of the Tigers previously confirmed lineup does remain unchanged.

Jose Iglesias scratched Sunday; Dixon Machado replaces and will bat ninth

Iglesias has officially been scratched from the Detroit Tigers lineup for today's game against the Baltimore Orioles due to a death in his family and will be placed on the bereavement list. He'll be replaced in the lineup by Dixon Machado, who will take over shortstop duties and bat ninth. Since Machado is slotting directly into Iglesias' spot in the batting order, the remainder of the Tigers previously confirmed lineup does remain unchanged.

Cheap bats available at all positions to help players pay up for pitching tonight

Players paying up for pitching are likely hunting for cheap bats, which makes Dixon Machado potentially the most popular player tonight, but there are several other spots where players can save tonight. Tyler Flowers is likely to be a popular Catcher, but John Hicks has shown well against fly ball pitchers in a small sample size and costs the same as Cameron Rupp ($2.7K DK, $2.2K FD), which is $500-$900 cheaper than Flowers tonight. At First Base, Adrian Gonzalez hasn't hit this year, but both he and Matt Adams are well under $3K on FanDuel. Chase Utley is one of the hottest hitters in the league (282 wRC+ over the last week) and is a reasonable pivot from Machado for just a few hundred more. Players can consider Nick Castellanos or Luis Valbuena (vs Kyle Gibson) at right around $3K on DK and a few hundred less on FanDuel. Allen Cordoba (vs German Marquez) remains a very cheap SS atop the San Diego lineup. Kole Calhoun should be getting a lot of love in the Outfield where DraftKings has him priced just $2.6K ($100 more on FanDuel). The last thing to mention for those seeking salary relief is that the entire Milwaukee lineup costs less than $2K on FanDuel tonight. Kershaw has been a bit HR prone on occasion this year. For Strasburg enthusiasts, one Milwaukee OF bat like Keon Broxton leading off or Domingo Santana have a shot to pay dividends if they do anything and allow for more expensive choices elsewhere.

With pitching expensive, Dixon Machado may be the most popular bat on the slate

Clayton Kershaw is projected to be the most popular pitcher tonight, but with Stephen Strasburg in a great spot (Oakland 37.7 K% over the last week), he's not the over-whelming chalk tonight. In fact, four pitchers are projected for at least 20% ownership on DraftKings with three above 10% on FanDuel. Some of that depends on the weather in Texas too as players may flock to Kershaw or Strasburg if that game gets cancelled. Considering the cost of pitching tonight,, players are expected to look for cheap bats with Dixon Machado topping the projected ownership board on either site, followed by a mostly affordable middle of the Atlanta lineup against Bronson Arroyo. While ownership is not projected to be very excessive on any single hitter, Chase Utley (113 wRC+, .259 ISO vs RHP, 282 wRC+ over the last week) could be a contrarian pivot off of Machado for not much more on FanDuel ($300 difference). He's projected for around 5% of lineups on either site. Premium players can find potential ownership rates for all players on the Projected Ownership page.

Players can look towards the middle infield or behind the plate for cheap bats tonight

With Chris Sale on the mound and a game at Coors tonight featuring one vulnerable lefty, players are going to need spots to save salary. The best spot for that may be at SS. Allen Cordoba (125 wRC+ vs RHP) is hitting leadoff. Eddie Butler sometimes gets ground balls, but not a lot of strikeouts and Cordoba is $2.6K or less on either site. Though he bats further down in the order tonight. Tim Beckham is another option at SS for $3K or less on either site in Texas against Nick Martinez. For FanDuel players, Catcher is another spot to save with Chris Herrmann costing $2.2K ($1.5K more on DraftKings). He bats in the lower half of the order as well, but has a .212 ISO vs RHP since 2015 and Pittsburgh is more forgiving to LH power than RH. Dixon Machado is another middle infield bat leading off for $2.7K on DraftKings and the absolute minimum on FanDuel. He has just a 78 career wRC+ against LHP though and faces a debuting LHP in Eric Skoglund. Competent cheap bats in decent spots are becoming more difficult to find as we get deeper into the season.
