Luis Arraez Dealing With Hand Soreness
San Francisco Giants second baseman Luis Arraez (hand) is dealing with some hand soreness, which is why he's out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's series finale against his former team, the San Diego Padres, according to Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle. The Giants have a scheduled day off on Thursday, so the Giants will likely try to avoid using him at all on Wednesday so that he gets three full days to heal up. Arraez tweaked his hand during a swing in Monday's series opener and was also held out of action in Tuesday's loss. The hot-hitting Casey Schmitt is starting at second again on Wednesday and will hit third for the Gigantes against Padres right-handed opener Bradgley Rodriguez. The 29-year-old Arraez continues to be a hitting machine for fantasy managers with a .316 average (42-for-133), but it comes with no home runs, 11 RBI, 14 runs scored, and four stolen bases in his first year in San Francisco. Check back on Friday to see if Arraez's hand is feeling good enough to allow him to return to the starting nine.
