Luis Arraez News
Miami Marlins infielder Luis Arraez went 3-for-4 with three singles in Monday's loss versus the San Francisco Giants. The strong performance raises his batting average to .284. Arraez was a breakout star last season with Miami as he hit .324 with 10 homers and 69 RBI, but has started slow in 2024. For the season he has no homers and just one RBI. Managers shouldn't panic yet as he is getting hits, but being at the top of a bad lineup will limit his other opportunities. At this rate it is probably best to remain patient versus selling low on Arraez as many managers spent a higher draft pick on him. He will look to keep it going versus Jordan Hicks in Game 2 of series.
After a slow start to the spring season, Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez got going on Friday in a 3-1 Grapefruit League loss to the New York Mets. The 2x batting champ went 3-for-3 with a double and an RBI. It was a welcome sight after the 26-year-old went 1-for-16 (.063) to begin the spring, but just like that, he's 4-for-19 (.211). The 2x All-Star's value is in his ability to collect loads of hits, as he doesn't hit for much power and doesn't pile up the counting stats despite how often he gets on base. Look for him to pile up the hits again in 2024 as he's one of the best, if not the best, in all of baseball at making contact. He's a much better points league option than roto, however.
Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez said Tuesday that while he "100 percent yes" would be interested in a contract extension, the team has not started any related conversations. The 26-year-old and the Marlins just completed his arbitration case, in which he will earn the $10.6 million the Marlins filed for in 2024, rather than the $12 million he had filed for. Arraez slashed .354/.393/.469 with 10 home runs and 69 RBI in 2023, earning his second batting title. President of baseball operations Peter Bendix said, "I love that he wants to stay here... That's something that we're going to keep internal." While his lack of high-level contribution in other categories limits his overall fantasy value, Arraez's elite batting average skills are undeniable.

Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez won his second consecutive batting title last season, this time in the NL, and there's no reason to think he won't make a run at a third in 2024. The 2x All-Star has elite hitting skills, with a K% of 5.5%, Contact% of 93.8%, and SwStr% of 3.1% in 2023, all on par with career numbers. That has translated into high BA (career .326) and high OBP (career .379). Unfortunately for fantasy, the lefty's got a career Barrel% of 3.0% and HardHit% of 27.6% which has resulted in few home runs, although he hit a career-high 10 HR in 2023. The 26-year-old is also not very fleet of foot, with a 22nd percentile sprint speed that produced just three stolen bases last season. Not hitting for power (career ISO of .101) and not stealing bases means you aren't getting into position to score. Arraez scored just 71 times in 2023 while producing just 69 RBI. Other than points leagues, his fantasy value gets depressed, with an NFBC ADP of 161, right around where RotoBaller ranks him (160). ATC projections look similar to the 2023 season, forecasting a .319-9-59-80-4 line with a WOBA of .348 and wRC+ of 118.
