Machado is not in the starting lineup for Monday's series opener against the Pirates, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
Machado will begin the series in the dugout after going 3-for-14 with two doubles and four RBI in the Padres' three-game weekend series against the Marlins. Since the All-Star break, Machado is slashing .274/.311/.536 with five home runs and 16 RBI across 100 plate appearances. Donovan Solano will man the hot corner and bat fifth against Pittsburgh right-hander Joe Musgrove.
