Luis Arraez's career history

Luis Sangel Arraez, a Venezuelan professional baseball infielder for the Miami Marlins of the MLB, was born on April 9, 1997.

In 2019, Arraez made his Major League Baseball debut with the Minnesota Twins. He had signed a contract with them as an international free agency in 2013. Arráez was an All-Star in 2022 and received the Silver Slugger Award and American League Batting Title. He was traded to the Marlins by the Twins during the 2022–2023 winter.

The Twins promoted Luis Arraez to the major leagues for the first time on May 17, 2019. On May 18, against the Seattle Mariners, he made his major league debut against pitcher Cory Gearrin and scored his first professional hit, a double.

On May 21 against the Los Angeles Angels, Arráez hit his first home run in the major leagues. He ended the 2019 campaign by hitting .334 in 326 at-bats over 92 games with 36 walks and 29 strikeouts. Later, he came in sixth in the vote for the American League (AL) Rookie of the Year.

Luis Arraez became the first Marlin to record five hits in a game since Starlin Castro (Aug. 19, 2018), raising his MLB-leading average to .390. According to MLB Pipeline, Eury Pérez, the top pitching prospect, was supported by Arraez's performance as he pitched five scoreless innings for the second consecutive start.
