While in all likelihood Luis Arráez won’t win his fourth batting title in as many years, he is still putting up an exceptional season at the plate. In 152 games, entering the final series of the season, he has slashed .288/.324/.388 with a 97 wRC+. And then he followed that up with four more hits Friday night.
Arráez has been one of the league's best bat-to-ball hitters, being a premier contact hitter who sprays the ball to different parts of the field. Another solid season at the dish for Arráez comes at an opportune time, as the Padres gear up to make another October run, the team’s fourth one in six seasons.
