Arias was scratched from Sunday's Cactus League lineup versus the Reds due to an illness, Mandy Bell of MLB.comreports.

EDGE Analysis

Arias is feeling under the weather and won't play as scheduled Sunday, but he should be back in action soon. The 24-year-old had a .627 OPS in 122 games last season and could being 2024 as Cleveland's primary shortstop, though he's not likely to have much security in that role.

Arias (wrist) will bat in the cleanup spot for Sunday's spring training game against the Mariners.

EDGE Analysis

Arias' 2023 season came to an abrupt end after he sustained a fractured right wrist in late September. He finished last season batting .210/.275/.352 with 10 home runs and 26 RBI over 345 plate appearances.

Cleveland placed Arias on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a fractured right wrist.

EDGE Analysis

Arias suffered the injury in the fourth inning of Tuesday's loss to the Reds and will finish the 2023 campaign with a .210/.275/.352 slash line, 10 homers, 26 RBI, three steals and 36 runs in 122 major-league games. Brayan Rocchio has been summoned from Triple-A Columbus to help out at shortstop.

Arias is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

EDGE Analysis

Arias is hitting .167 with a 34.1 percent strikeout rate over his past 11 games and will take a seat for Sunday's series finale. Jose Tena will start at shortstop and bat ninth.

Arias is out of the lineup Wednesday versus the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

Arias will be on the bench for the third time in seven games. Prior to that span, the 23-year-old had appeared in 13 consecutive games. Jose Tena will start in his place at shortstop and bat eighth.

Arias went 1-for-3 with a home run, two RBI and one run scored in Monday's 6-4 loss to the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

Arias reached the double-digit home run milestone with a 394-foot solo shot in the fourth inning. He later added an additional RBI via a sacrifice fly in the sixth. Although the 23-year-old has cemented himself as the starting Cleveland shortstop, he has struggled at the dish this year. Arias has produced a .215/.281/.362 slash line over 117 games.

Arias is not in Saturday's lineup against the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

Arias appears to be receiving a routine day of rest, though he's now sat out two of the team's last five games. Jose Tena will take over at shortstop and hit ninth.

Arias went 2-for-5 with a stolen base and a run scored in Friday's 12-3 win over the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

Arias has picked up steady playing time in September, but he's batting just .231 (12-for-52) over 13 games this month. Most of his playing time is coming at shortstop, and it's a positive sign he's sticking in the lineup when the Guardians are at virtually full health. The infielder is essentially learning on the job at this point, given his .213/.282/.354 slash line with nine home runs, three steals, 21 RBI and 34 runs scored through 115 contests overall.

Arias went 2-for-5 with a two-run homer and two runs scored in Saturday's 7-6 victory over the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Arias singled in his first at-bat before adding a two-run homer in the bottom of the fourth to put the Guardians up 4-1. He's now racked up multiple hits in back-to-back games and in four of his last eight, adding five RBI over that latter stretch to go along with nine runs scored. On the downside, the utility man has also struck out 12 times over his last nine games while drawing only one walk.

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

EDGE Analysis

Arias will get a much-needed breather after he started in each of Cleveland's last 13 games, seeing action at all four infield spots but second base during that stretch. Tyler Freeman will get the nod at shortstop Sunday, but Arias is expected to operate as the primary option at the position in the wake of Brayan Rocchio's recent demotion to Triple-A Columbus.
