The Padres reinstated Arraez (concussion) from the 7-day injured list Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

A collision with Mauricio Dubon sent Arraez to the 7-day concussion IL last week, but he's now been given the green light to return to competitive action. Jason Heyward (knee) will come off the IL alongside Arraez to replace Mason McCoy (finger) and Yuli Gurriel.

Arraez is expected to be activated from the 7-day concussion injured list prior to Tuesday's game versus the Giants, mmmDaniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Arraez landed on the concussion IL last week following a collision with the Astros' Mauricio Dubon, but he's poised to return after the minimum seven-day absence. The Padres have been using Gavin Sheets as their regular first baseman since Arraez went down, and Sheets will go back to being the club's primary designated hitter when Arraez returns.

The Padres placed Arraez (concussion) on the 7-day injured list prior to Monday's 6-4 loss to the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

San Diego called up infielder Mason McCoy from Triple-A El Paso to fill the open spot on the 26-man active roster, but Gavin Sheets ended up picking up the start at first base in Arraez's stead Monday, while Oscar Gonzalez served as the Padres' designated hitter. Arraez experienced concussion symptoms after he collided with the Astros' Mauricio Dubon in the first inning of Sunday's 3-2 win over Houston, resulting in the 28-year-old being carted off the field and taken to a hospital. Arraez has since relayed that he's feeling well, but he'll be out for at least this week while he recovers from the concussion.

Arraez (concussion) is expected to be placed on the 7-day injured list, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Arraez is dealing with concussion symptoms following his collision with Mauricio Dubon on Sunday. Arraez was stretchered off the field and taken to the hospital for further evaluation. He's since posted on social media that everything checked out fine, but the Padres are going to play it safe with their first baseman and let him rest this week. Connor Joe, Yuli Gurriel and Gavin Sheets will be candidates for increased playing time.

Arraez was removed from Sunday's contest against the Astros in the top of the first inning after a collision at first base, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Arraez laid down a bunt in his first at-bat of the day, making forceful contact with Mauricio Dubon at first base while busting it down the line. Arraez remained down for several minutes before being carted off the field with his head and neck stabilized, including a brace around his neck. More information on his status will likely be provided in the near future.

Arraez went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run in Friday's 6-4 loss to the Padres.

EDGE Analysis

The 28-year-old contact king lofted a Bryan King fastball at the top of the zone down the right-field line in the seventh inning, accounting for the Padres' final offense of the night. Arraez has hit safely in six straight games, batting .357 (10-for-28) over that stretch to boost his slash line on the season to .294/.322/.435, but he's also flashing more power than usual to kick off 2025. Arraez has homered three times in 20 games, after leaving the yard only four times in 150 regular-season contests last year.

Arraez went 3-for-5 with a solo home run, a double and two total runs against the Cubs in a 10-4 win Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Arraez hit the second of back-to-back homers with Fernando Tatis in the eighth inning as the Padres pulled away for their 11th straight home victory. The veteran infielder has all but wiped out memories of his slow start to the season -- after going 0-for-13 over his first four games, Arraez has since boosted his average up to .282. That mark is likely to come up even further given that Arraez has never batted less than .294 over a full season, and with two homers so far, he's already halfway to the four long balls he hit across 150 regular-season games last year.

Arraez went 4-for-5 with a walk, a stolen base, an RBI and a run scored in Sunday's win over the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

Arraez reached base five times and is now eight for his last 16 with a home run and a double. Arraez has not struck out in 44 plate appearances this season and is the only player in baseball, minimum 15 plate appearances, yet to strikeout.

Arraez went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, an additional run scored and a stolen base in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Guardians.

EDGE Analysis

After an uncharacteristic 0-for-16 start from the three-time batting champion, Arraez has begun to look like his regular self with hits in three consecutive games. Wednesday's contest also saw the 27-year-old belt his first home run of the season, though fantasy managers shouldn't expect many more long balls from him after he finished 2024 with just four homers.

Arraez went 3-for-3 with a solo home run, an additional run and a stolen base in Friday's Cactus League win over Texas.

EDGE Analysis

Arraez is swinging a hot bat this spring, batting .433 over 30 at-bats. He did a couple things Friday that are out of the norm for him, as he both hit a homer and stole a base. Arraez had just four long balls and nine thefts over 672 regular-season plate appearances last year, which are reasons why he's often taken outside of the top 150 in fantasy drafts. That said, Arraez is as dependable as it gets when it comes to providing elite batting average, as evidenced by his streak of three consecutive batting titles.
