Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez (ankle) remains out of the starting lineup again on Wednesday against the visiting New York Mets. Jon Berti will take over at the keystone and will bat eighth in the order against Mets right-hander Kodai Senga. Arraez suffered a sprained left ankle during pre-game workouts on Tuesday and will now miss his second straight game. For now, fantasy managers should consider the 26-year-old hit machine day-to-day. With an off day coming on Thursday, both the Marlins and fantasy managers will be hoping MLB's batting leader can return on Friday for the series opener against the Milwaukee Brewers. Although Arraez has very little power to speak of, he's the best pure hitter average-wise in baseball and is a must-start when he's active.

The Miami Marlins scratched second baseman Luis Arraez (ankle) from their starting lineup on Tuesday against the visiting New York Mets due to a left-ankle sprain and are calling him day-to-day. Arraez suffered the sprained ankle while working out before the game and could need multiple days off as the Fish push for the final wild-card spot in the National League. With Arraez injured, Xavier Edwards entered the starting lineup at the keystone and will hit ninth against Mets left-hander Joey Lucchesi. The Marlins can ill-afford to lose Arraez for any stretch of games at this critical juncture. He entered the day leading the league with a .354 average (201-for-567) with a career-high 10 homers, 30 doubles, three triples, 69 RBI, three stolen bases and 70 runs scored in 144 games in his first year in Miami.

Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez (illness) is back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the San Diego Padres. He was pulled out of Monday's game due to a stomach cramp. It appears to be only a minor issue as Arraez is back in the lineup on Tuesday. He'll bat second and cover second base versus left-hander Blake Snell on Tuesday evening. Arraez is slashing .358/.401/.460 with five home runs and 58 RBI in 115 games this season.

Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez (stomach) left Monday night's 6-2 loss to the Miami Marlins early due to a stomach cramp, according to the team. Before departing, Arraez went 1-for-2 at the plate before being replaced at the keystone by Jon Berti. Losing Major League Baseball's leading hitter for any stretch of time would be devastating for the Marlins as they look to secure a postseason berth down the stretch, but this will most likely be a day-to-day thing. Fantasy managers will want to check back on Tuesday to see if he's back in the starting lineup. The 26-year-old came into Monday's action leading all of baseball with a .357 batting average and a league-leading 166 hits in 505 plate appearances in his first year in Miami. Arraez has also added a career-high 58 RBI and 52 runs scored.

Miami Marlins All-Star second baseman Luis Arraez was 3-for-5 with three RBI in an 8-7 come-from-behind victory over the New York Yankees on Sunday. Before going into the ninth frame, Miami was down four runs. Eventually, Arraez smashed a two-run game-tying triple. Jake Burger would then end the game with a walk-off single. For Arraez, the triple was the only extra-base hit for the infielder in the contest. However, the 26-year-old did register three RBI. The Marlin's leadoff batter until Sunday's game had hit a rough patch offensively, as he has six hits in his last 26 at-bats.

Miami Marlins All-Star second baseman Luis Arraez is not in the team's starting lineup for the series opener on Monday against the Cincinnati Reds. With Arraez starting on the bench, Jon Berti is at the keystone and is batting leadoff against Reds left-hander Brandon Williamson. This will be Arraez's first game off since the All-Star break. The 26-year-old hitting machine continues to lead all of baseball with a .375 batting average and 157 hits in 458 plate appearances in his first year in Miami. He's also added a fantastic .420 on-base percentage, .888 OPS, three home runs, 26 doubles, two triples, 52 RBI and 46 runs scored in 107 total games. Arraez should be back on Tuesday and should be returned to all starting fantasy lineups then.

Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez saw two at-bats during Tuesday's All-Star game and recorded a pair of singles while driving in one run. That's nothing new for the 26-year-old, who's sporting a league-leading .383 batting average. Arraez doesn't do much else in terms of fantasy value, as he's gone deep just three times and has one stolen base, 40 runs, and 42 RBI over 86 games. However, his batting average makes him a solid producer in any format, and fantasy managers can expect that continue considering his career .327 mark.

Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez is not in the starting lineup on Saturday against the Philadelphia Phillies. The 26-year-old hitting machine is getting a breather on Saturday so Bryan De La Cruz is batting leadoff while Garrett Hampson is drawing the start at second base and batting ninth against Phillies' starter Ranger Suarez. Arraez should get a final tune up game on Sunday ahead of his first All-Star game appearance next week. He's slashing an absurd .386/.437/.475 with three home runs, 41 RBI, and one stolen base over 324 at-bats.

Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez continues to hit, as he went 3-for-5 in the 3-0 loss to the visiting St. Louis Cardinals on Thursday. Arraez had three of the team's nine hits on the day and is now batting .388 on the year with a .917 OPS. The 26-year-old Venezuelan hitting machine has hit safely in 16 of his last 17 games and is batting an absurd .418 (33-for-79) with two home runs, three triples, 11 RBI and 13 runs scored in his last 19 games since June 16. It's going to be extremely difficult to hit .400 this year, but if anyone can do it, it would be Arraez. He's added three home runs, 18 doubles, a league-high 124 hits, 41 RBI and 40 runs scored in 83 games in his first year in Miami. Arraez's .388 average leads all of baseball by a wide margin, and he also has a league-high .439 on-base percentage.

Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez finished 5-for-5 with two RBI and a run scored in Monday's 11-0 smackdown of the Toronto Blue Jays. This is starting to get ridiculous now. The 26-year-old has three five-hit attacks this month, becoming the fourth player since 1900 to accomplish this feat. It seemed the contact specialist was losing steam on the quest for a .400 average with a recent 1-for-17 dip. However, Arraez now has 11 hits in his last three games to get it right back up to that prodigious figure. The 2022 batting champion is on a warpath this season, slashing a breathtaking .400/.450/.490 with two homers, 35 RBI, and a stolen base over 255 at-bats for a full-on breakout. Arraez is up to 102 hits this season and looks well on his way to a second straight All-Star nod, if not another batting title.

Overall, the 26-year-old is having a fantastic fantasy season producing a .390 batting average with two home runs and 33 RBI in 246 trips to the plate.

Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez went 3-for-4 with a double, a pair of RBI, and a run scored in a 9-6 win over the Kansas City Royals on Monday. The hitting machine that is Luis Arraez picked up three more hits in this contest, including an RBI double in the bottom of the third inning. The 26-year-old is now second in all of MLB with 83 hits behind Bo Bichette and his 87. However, Arraez leads the entire league with a ridiculous .399 batting average and a .450 on-base percentage. He also has one home run, 29 RBI, and one stolen base over 208 at-bats. He's got a long way to go but it's worth pointing out that no one has hit .400 in a season since Ted Williams way back in 1941.

Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez (leg) seemed to favor his left leg late in the 10-1 loss to the San Diego Padres on Thursday and was replaced at the keystone by Garrett Hampson in the top of the eighth inning. Before leaving the contest, Arraez went 1-for-2 with an RBI to raise his batting average to an absurd .382 on the year with a .903 OPS. The 26-year-old has had a couple injury scares so far in 2023, and hopefully this one doesn't turn out to be anything serious. It's possible the Marlins were being extra cautious in a game that had already been decided, but fantasy managers should check back for more details on his injury and whether it will cause him to miss any time. Arraez is one of the best hitters in the game.

Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez (leg) is back in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. Arraez was pulled out of Wednesday's contest due to a left leg cramp. The Marlins had Arraez sit out of Thursday's game as a precaution. He'll cover second base and bat third versus lefty Reid Detmers on Friday. This season, Arraez is slashing .371/.422/.465 with one homer, 18 RBI in 43 games. Fantasy managers should make sure to get Arraez back in the lineup for Friday's slate.

Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez (leg) is not in the starting lineup on Thursday against the Colorado Rockies. Arraez was pulled from Wednesday's game early as a precautionary measure due to a left-leg cramp, and he'll be held out of Thursday's matinee game as well. Fantasy managers should consider this a minor issue, and hopefully the 26-year-old will be back in action on Friday on the road against the Los Angeles Angels. The Venezuelan hitting machine is a must-start in fantasy when he's active, as he's hitting a league-high .371 (63-for-170) with 11 doubles, a triple, one homer, 18 RBI and 17 runs scored in 46 games. Xavier Edwards is taking his spot at the keystone on Thursday and is in the nine-hole to face Rockies left-hander Kyle Freeland.

Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez (leg) left Wednesday night's game against the Colorado Rockies as a precaution with a left-leg cramp. Before departing early, Arraez went 1-for-3 with a double, two RBI and one run scored in the eventual 10-2 win over the Rockies. It doesn't sound like a serious injury for the 26-year-old, so fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now. Still, be prepared for him to rest as a precaution in a matinee game on Thursday to close out the series against Colorado on the road. When healthy, Arraez is an absolute must-start in fantasy, as he came into Wednesday's game with a league-leading .371 average (62-for-167) with 10 doubles, a triple, home run, 16 RBI and 16 runs scored in 45 games played in his first year in Miami.

Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez is starting Sunday's contest against Alex Wood and the San Francisco Giants on the bench, according to MLB.com. The 26-year-old is putting up unbelievable numbers, slashing .387/.442/.484 with one home run, 16 runs, 15 RBI, and one stolen base over 42 games. Xavier Edwards will play second base instead and bat ninth. The rookie is hitting .273 across just five games with no long balls and one stolen base. Edwards knows how to hit, as proved by his .301 career average in the minors, so fantasy managers looking for a batting average boost can stream the switch hitter.

Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez (knee) is back at second base and is hitting cleanup on Wednesday against right-hander Bryce Elder and the division-rival Atlanta Braves. Arraez missed the team's last three games with a bruised left knee, but it was nothing too serious and he'll be back for fantasy managers on Wednesday. The 26-year-old Venezuelan continues to prove that he's one of the best hitters in baseball, and hopefully that won't change after missing a little time with his knee injury. Last year's American League batting champion with the Minnesota Twins, Arraez currently leads baseball with a .444 batting average and .506 on-base percentage while adding five doubles, a triple, a homer, nine RBI and a stolen base in his first 20 games with the Fish. Get him back into your fantasy lineups.

Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez (knee) will remain out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Atlanta Braves. This marks the third game in a row that Arraez has missed due to left knee soreness. He was also dealing with a left finger issue last week, so maybe Arraez re-aggravated that injury. Regardless, Jon Berti will play second base and bat seventh versus righty Charlie Morton on Tuesday. Fantasy managers should adjust their lineups accordingly with Arraez out again.

Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez is out of the starting lineup again on Monday against the Atlanta Braves. It will be the second day in a row that Arraez isn't starting, and it remains to be seen if he has suffered a setback with a minor left index finger injury that he dealt with last week. Arraez continues to be one of the best hitters in baseball after winning the American League batting title in 2022 with the Minnesota Twins. The 26-year-old Venezuelan has gone 32-for-72 for a league-leading .444 batting average with a league-leading .506 on-base percentage, five doubles, a triple, a homer, nine RBI and a stolen base in his 20 games. Jon Berti is starting at the keystone and is hitting seventh on Monday against Braves right-hander Spencer Strider with Arraez out again.
