Arráez is a two-time All-Star and netted Silver Sluggers in 2022 and 2023, the first of which came with the Minnesota Twins. In 2023, he led MLB with a .354 batting average and slugged a career-best .861.
Through 33 games in 2024, he’s batting .299 with eight doubles and 22 runs for the 9-24 Marlins, who are on pace to win under 50 games this season.
He’ll be joining a 16-18 San Diego team that currently sits two games behind the Los Angeles Dodgers in the National League West.
