Del Potro is third seed, opening against the winner of Kei Nishikori v Robin Haase, while Kevin Anderson is seeded fourth and will play Andrey Rublev or a qualifier in the second round.
Other players with a second-round bye include fifth-seed Dimitrov, sixth-seed Cilic, seventh-seed Thiem and eight-seed Isner while ninth-seed Djokovic faces Chung Hyeon in the first round.
