Tue Apr 25 202318:37Luis Arraez Continues To Sit Out
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.

Mon Apr 24 202317:21Luis Arraez Sitting 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.

Fri Apr 14 202316:00Luis Arraez, Jazz Chisholm Jr. Out On Friday
Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez (finger) and outfielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. are not in the team's starting lineup on Friday against Arizona Diamondbacks left-hander Madison Bumgarner. Arraez is dealing with a minor left index finger injury, but this is mostly a rest day for both him and Chisholm against a southpaw on Friday. Arraez continues to do nothing but hit going 23-for-46 (.500) with four doubles, a triple, a homer and five RBI in his first 13 games for the Fish. The 2022 American League batting champ has a league-high 23 hits in the early going. Chisholm is hitting just .229 (11-for-48) with two homers, four RBI and three steals. Garrett Hampson is at second and batting ninth, while Bryan De La Cruz is playing center field and hitting cleanup on Friday.

Sun Apr 2 202301:44Luis Arraez Picks Up Four Hits Against The Mets
Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez picked up four hits in five at-bats in Saturday's meeting with the Mets. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough, as the Marlins lost 6-2. The 25-year-old spent his first four years in MLB with the Twins before being traded to Miami in January. The All-Star appears to be settling in just fine, as he's currently tied with C.J. Cron for a league-leading seven hits. Although Arraez has just one RBI, category managers should pleased up to this point.

Fri Mar 31 202312:50Luis Arraez Has Two Hits In Marlins Debut
Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez went 2-for-4 with an RBI, double, run scored and one strikeout in the 5-3 loss to the New York Mets on Opening Day on Thursday in his debut with the team. Arraez didn't disappoint out of the leadoff spot in his first game for the Fish, and he should be an excellent table-setter for the team in 2023. The 25-year-old won the American League batting crown with the Minnesota Twins in 2022 by slashing .316/.375/.420 with a .795 OPS, eight home runs, 49 RBI, 88 runs scored and four stolen bases in 603 plate appearances and 144 games. Arraez doesn't have much speed or power, but he'll be great for average, on-base percentage and runs scored.

Thu Feb 2 202313:04Luis Arraez Wins Arbitration Case Over Marlins
Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez won his salary arbitration case at $6.1 million over the team on Thursday, according to a source. The Minnesota Twins filed a number of $5 million before they traded Arraez to the Marlins this offseason, but the number didn't change following his trade. Arraez won the American League batting title in 2022 with the Twins when he hit .316. The 25-year-old also added a .375 on-base percentage, .420 slugging percentage, .795 OPS, career-high eight home runs, 49 RBI, 88 runs scored and four stolen bases in 603 plate appearances over 144 games. He will be Miami's everyday second baseman and leadoff batter in 2023. Although Miami isn't the best hitting environment and their offense as a whole isn't anything to write home about, Arraez should once again be a great source of average, OBP and runs scored.

Fri Jan 20 202317:04Marlins Acquire Luis Arraez From Twins
The Miami Marlins acquired All-Star second baseman Luis Arraez from the Minnesota Twins on Friday in exchange for right-hander Pablo Lopez and prospects Jose Salas and Byron Chourio, according to sources. Arraez won the American League batting title in 2022 by hitting .316 with a .375 on-base percentage, .420 slugging percentage, .795 OPS, career-high eight home runs, 49 RBI, 88 runs scored and four stolen bases in 603 plate appearances and 144 games. The 25-year-old can play pretty much anywhere on the infield and could also be used in the outfield in Miami, but there's no doubt that he'll be playing every day for the Fish. Miami isn't the best hitter's environment, but Arraez is more useful for runs, average and OBP to begin with in fantasy.

Wed Jan 18 202300:21Marlins Interested In Luis Arraez
The Athletic's Dan Hayes reported Tuesday that the Miami Marlins are interested in Minnesota Twins second baseman Luis Arraez. However, the Twins have reportedly attached a heavy price tag to the 2022 All-Star. The 25-year-old had a great season, slashing .316/.375/.420 with eight home runs 49 RBI, 88 runs scored, and four stolen bases in 603 plate appearances. The young second baseman holds a great deal of value to the Twins, but his fantasy value is somewhat limited, as he hits almost entirely for average. His fantasy value would relatively decline if he were to be traded to the Marlins.

According to an article from The Athletic's Dan Hayes on Monday morning, Minnesota Twins infielder "Luis Arraez could be traded this offseason, but only in the right deal, according to sources familiar with the team's thinking."

Arraez enjoyed an excellent season for the American League Central club and fantasy managers alike in 2022, batting .316 with a .375 on-base percentage, eight home runs, and four stolen bases in 603 plate appearances. He also added 88 runs scored and 49 RBI on the season.

Minnesota Twins second baseman Luis Arraez (hamstring) is not in the starting lineup on Thursday against the Kansas City Royals.

He won't start on Thursday, but he could be available off the bench and could be back in the starting lineup as soon as Friday. With Arraez starting on the bench, Jermaine Palacios will start at the keystone and hit eighth, while Kyle Garlick is serving as the designated hitter and is batting leadoff against Royals left-hander Daniel Lynch. Garlick profiles as a deep sleeper in DFS. He's hitting .254 (18-for-71) and has hit six of his nine home runs against southpaws in 2022.

Sat Aug 20 202213:28Luis Arraez Goes Deep Friday
Minnesota Twins infielder Luis Arraez continued his excellent season Friday, hitting a solo home run in three at-bats with a walk to help the team to a 2-1 win over the Texas Rangers. It's Arraez's seventh long ball of the season. He has slashed .344/.385/.492 in August, and by OPS he is the Twins' best hitter on the season. Arraez should be rostered everywhere, but he is of the most value to fantasy managers in points and sabermetrically-oriented formats due to his excellent bat-to-ball and on-base skills.

Sun Jul 31 202223:50Luis Arraez Homers Sunday
Minnesota Twins infielder Luis Arraez went deep Sunday, knocking his sixth home run of the year in a 3-2 loss to the San Diego Padres. It was his only hit in four trips to the plate. Arraez last homered on July 16. He now has a .333/.403/.440 slash line with 56 runs scored, 34 RBI, and two steals in 374 plate appearances this season. While he doesn't offer all that much upside outside of batting average in category leagues, Arraez is a much stronger option in points formats with his contact-based approach.

Arraez won't provide fantasy managers with much power, but he gets on base and makes consistent contact. The matchup against Cole isn't great for those setting DFS lineups.
