Why he matters right now
Luis Arraez co-leads the majors in hits
Through 132 games he is tied for first in hits — the kind of line that decides awards.
Same case as last night, moved numbers: hits went from .317 to 166 since August 31.
The case in 30 seconds
- 166 No. 1, shared, in hits on MLB's own leaderboards — 166 hits (tied with 1 other) MLB season leaderboard (the league's own top-10 board of qualified players, not this site's roster)
- .315 .776 OPS, 6 home runs, 55 RBI and 10 stolen bases over 132 games snapshot batting board — the union of MLB's top-10 hitting boards, then MLB's 3.1 PA per team game rule applied; not the league's full qualified pool
The honest caveat
It is still a partial season — 576 plate appearances so far. A rate moves fastest against the strongest arms a schedule has left, and the schedule ahead is not the schedule behind.
What to watch next
34 more to reach 200 HITS.
