Absolute joy to watch.
I would run through a brick wall for this man
I am just watching his ABs, is just an unbelievable approach
I love Mud’s little giggles after he gets a hit
Besides Profar, the only batter to get better after coming to SD.
I wouldn’t mind giving this man an extension. Keep him in SD
Build the statue!
Doing the bull dance, feelin the flow
That bunt🤌
So refreshing to see a player focus on a quick, contact swing in this day and age. I think someone like Tatis would be a much better hitter if he took a few notes from Arraez and didn’t swing for the fences so much. His natural strength would probably get it out more anyway with a higher contact rate.

But reddit told me batting average wasn’t important. So he must be a disadvantage to the team.
I love this guy
So can we stop taking him out of the lineup against lefties? 3 times not in the starting lineup since arriving here is 3 times too many imo
As A Padre – .419/.449/.514/.963 and he is playing decent defense at 2B. Bogaerts to DH when he returns?
Anyone else do the ATHF witch doctor chant when Arraez is up?
Last Year it was insanely exciting to see him hitting close to .400. I hope he has a phenomenal career with you guys, he definitely deserves a long term contract, spmething our POS owner wouldn’t give him.
We need to lock this guy down. He is exactly what this team needs. Someone needs to be Mr. San Diego and if it’s not going to be Tatis or Manny then it should be this guy!!
I don’t want to say he’s the new Tony Gwynn…BUT HE’S THE NEW TONY GWYNN!
