Luis Arraez Not Seeing a Large Market?
According to Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic, free agent infielder Luis Arraez is not seeing a large market. While Arraez is one of the game's top contact hitters, his struggles on the defensive side of the game have prevented him from securing a contract. Rosenthal noted on The Foul Territory podcast that he expects the 28-year-old to sign a "prove-it" type deal shortly before spring training. In 2025, Arraez appeared in 154 games for the Padres and served as their primary first baseman, while also seeing occasional starts at second base and DH. He posted a .293/.327/.392 line with 30 doubles, eight home runs, and 11 stolen bases. However, he placed in the fourth percentile in Outs Above Average and the 28th percentile in arm strength. Managers should monitor his status, as he would remain a top batting-average contributor in rotisserie leagues but offer minimal power upside.
