Machados performance has been subpar this season, raising concerns about the long-term impact of his contract on the franchise. With additional high-priced contracts for Fernando Tatis Jr. and Xander Bogaerts, the Padres face potential salary cap constraints, potentially hindering their contention for years to come.
