Local media Newsweek and others reported on the 7th (Korean time) that the San Diego Padres, which began tightening management, will trade batting king Araez to cut their total salary. "Araez is likely to face a new season in the fourth team in the last four years," he added.메이저놀이터

Arraez has a reputation as a player with the best contact ability in the Major League (ML). Although his defensive ability and weak slugging ability, which are pointed out as weaknesses in infielders, are not outstanding in the ML, he has played in the big leagues only with his batting ability. Arraez, who debuted with the Minnesota Twins in 2019, played in a total of 686 games in six seasons with a batting average of 0.323 847 hits, 28 homers, 247 RBIs, 370 runs and OPS (on-base plus slugging percentage) of 0.790.

Notably, he has been named the batting champion and all-star for three consecutive years. Arraez became the batting champion for three consecutive years from the 2022 to 2024 season. This is a record that only eight times have been recorded in the ML history. However, he played for different teams for all three years. Over the past three years, Arraez has moved to Minnesota, the Miami Marlins, and the San Diego Padres, where he started the season with different teams every year.

If he leaves the team in a trade again, Araez will be the player who changed her uniform for the fourth consecutive season. "San Diego is going to cut its total annual salary ahead of the 2025 season," the media said, adding that the team is in a serious financial position.

Recently, the San Diego Padres let go of the option to extend the contract with infielder Kim Ha-sung and let him go as a free agent. If Araez is to be let go in a trade, she will have to let go of two infielders during the Stove League. Araez is drawing attention from teams such as the New York Yankees that need to strengthen her second baseman position.

However, the player himself is known to want to stay. "If the team wants to, I want to stay in this team," Arraez said in an interview after being eliminated from the National League Division Series last year. "I want to stay here for a long time."
