Arias is dealing with what an MRI revealed to be a "moderate" sprain, according to Cleveland manager Stephen Vogt.

It was just his second homer over his past 60 games after Arias began the campaign with four long balls across his initial 16 contests. The infielder/outfielder has a career high of 10 home runs in the majors, which he established over 345 plate appearances during the 2023 campaign.
