Arias is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta.

EDGE Analysis

Arias will get a breather after starting 16 straight contests and slashing .214/.258/.375 with two home runs, two stolen bases, 13 RBI and five runs. Brayan Rocchio will slide over from his usual spot at second base to cover shortstop.

Arias went 0-for-1 with a walk, two RBI and a run scored in Thursday's 9-4 win over Miami.

EDGE Analysis

Arias contributed in various ways to Cleveland's win. He delivered one run on a groundout and drove in the game-winning tally on a sacrifice fly. The shortstop was later hit by a pitch, stole second base and scored the team's final run. Arias has maintained a tenuous grip on the starting shortstop job since returning from an ankle injury in late July, going 15-for-59 (.254) with three home runs, 14 RBI, two steals and six runs scored over 17 contests.

Arias went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run in Wednesday's 13-4 loss to the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

Arias tied the game at 4-4 with a three-run blast off Eury Perez in the fourth inning. In 16 games since returning from the injured list July 26, the 25-year-old has gone 15-for-58 with three homers, 12 RBI, five runs scored and a stolen base. For the year, he's slashing .236/.290/.393 with nine home runs, 43 RBI, 33 runs scored and four steals across 342 plate appearances.

Arias went 1-for-4 with a home run and four RBI in Monday's 7-6 extra-inning win over the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

The homer was Arias' eighth of the season, and his four RBI set a season high as well. The 25-year-old infielder has been impressive at the plate in a limited sample size since coming off the injured list, which could help him eventually work his way up the batting order. Arias is hitting .290 with two big flies, two doubles, seven RBI and one stolen base over his last 31 at-bats (eight games).

Arias is absent from the lineup for Monday's contest against the Rockies.

EDGE Analysis

Arias started each of the first three games for the Guardians upon his return from the 10-day injured list last week, but he'll get a breather for Monday's series opener. Brayan Rocchio will handle shortstop and hit eighth.

Arias went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a double during Sunday's 4-1 loss to Kansas City.

EDGE Analysis

Arias got the Guardians on the scoreboard in the seventh inning with a solo homer off Angel Zerpa. The round tripper was Arias' seventh of the season and his third of the last 14 games. During that stretch, which spans over a month due to an IL stint, he is 10-for-17 with seven RBI and 20 Ks.

Arias started at shortstop in both ends of Saturday's doubleheader against the Royals and went a combined 1-for-6 with a double.

EDGE Analysis

Arias was activated from the 10-day injured list Friday and reclaimed the position he held prior to his ankle injury. He and Brayan Rocchio made up the middle infield combo for both games Saturday and could split playing time at the two positions along with Daniel Schneemann.

The Guardians activated Arias (ankle) from the 10-day injured list, and he's starting at shortstop and batting sixth Friday against the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

The 25-year-old landed on the shelf at the start of July due to an ankle sprain but is ready to rejoin the Guardians after a four-game rehab assignment with Triple-A Columbus. Arias should take over as Cleveland's primary shortstop, though his .231/.293/.369 slash line through 77 games this season likely won't provide much job security.

Arias (ankle) could be activated off the 10-day injured list ahead of this weekend's series against the Royals, MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Arias has played four games so far on a rehab assignment at Triple-A Columbus, including two consecutive nine-inning contests at shortstop Tuesday and Wednesday. The back-to-back work in the field suggests his activation is imminent. Prior to the injury, Arias operated as the Guardians' primary shortstop, having replaced a struggling Brayan Rocchio, but it's unclear if he'll return in the same role. Rocchio, who was called up when Arias landed on the IL in early July, has hit .254 (15-for-59) with a .709 OPS, eight extra-base hits and 11 RBI over 20 games. Those results are much better than what he posted over the first 35 games of the season, and which got him demoted in early May.

Guardians manager Stephen Vogt said Monday that Arias (ankle) should be back "pretty soon," if all continues to go well, MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Arias began a rehab assignment at Triple-A Columbus on Friday and played another game Sunday before the Clippers had Monday off. He started at shortstop in both but has yet to play a full game.
