FACTS/FLUKES: Arraez, M. Barnes, Jansen, Bummer, Pillar

Arraez has the plate skills... When we last checked in on Luis Arraez (2B, MIN) in July, Brandon Kruse noted that Arraez would "be of fantasy interest to everyone if he can find more at-bats." In 326 at-bats, he hit .334 with 4 HR, 28 RBI, 54 R, and 2 SB. In the middle rounds (242 ADP), can he offer another strong BA?
