A little over a month into the season, Major League Baseball has already seen some trade shocks, involving the Miami Marlins and San Diego Padres. The protagonist of the exchange was last year’s National League batting champion, Luis Arraez, and he lived up to expectations. In his first game with the Padres, he had 4 hits in 6 at-bats. He earned praise from teammate Fernando Tatis Jr.: “He may be the best player closest to Tony Gwynn today.” in Padres history to “wear” The creator of the Padres uniform had 4 hits in a single game in his first game.

The reason Arraez came to the Marlins was in the 2023 preseason trade with the Minnesota Twins. The Marlins paid a steady job for Pablo Lopez, who became a major contributor to the Twins ending their playoff losing streak last year. during the vote and has been in pretty good health so far this year. He contributed 37.2 innings in 7 games. The day Arraez was traded to the Padres, he got on the board the same day and gave up 1 run in 6 innings once morest Boston. The Red Sox started and helped the Twins to their 12th straight victory. The deal with the Marlins also provides other side dishes for the Twins: First, infielder José Salas, who just celebrated his 21st birthday in late April, was invited to spring training this year. He hit .273 in 11 at-bats during spring training and. is currently in the senior ranks. 1A played 19 games, hitting .230/.309/.295. Although he threw 22 steals last year, his base stealing success rate was not high and his OPS was only .531. in the future, it will be quite difficult to reach the major leagues; there’s also Byron Chourio, a left-right fielder who’s regarding to turn 19. He had a .415 on-base percentage in the Rookie League last year. , he started from 1A and had a record of .250/.349/.423 in 14 games. However, he is currently injured.

As both rookies are still young and still in the lower class, they don’t see much impact yet, so at the moment it can be considered Lopez in exchange for Arraez and then in exchange for the package provided by the Padres in this transaction: Korean pitcher Ko Woo Woo-Suk Go with three rookies Dillon Head, Jakob Marsee and Nathan Martorella.

Ko Woo-suk, 25, is in his first year in the United States this year. He allowed 11 hits in 5 innings of spring training and had a 12.6 ERA. He started the season in 2A and currently has 1 save. success, 15K performance in 12.1 innings and a 4.38 ERA. The ERA and WHIP of 1.46 are not ideal, and they are still far from the big leagues. Dillon Head is 19 and was a center back in the first; round (25th overall) of the Padres’ draft last year. After last year’s draft, he was in the Rookie League and 1A. He has an OPS of .763 in a total of 27 games starting in 1A this season. home shooting in 21 games and measurements of .237/.317/.366. He has good speed and defense, but the offensive winger needs continued training.

Marsee, a 22-year-old left-handed outfielder, will be selected by the Padres in the sixth round in 2022. He was known for his strong on-base rate in college. He also had a base rate of 40% in college. in the minor leagues for two consecutive years from 2022 to 2023. Last year, he had more walks than strikeouts. After the season, he was sent to the Arizona Fall League, which opened his eyes. He had an overblown .391/. .509/.707 in 24 games. He’s clearly hit a wall in 2A this year, with measurements of just .177/.336/.318. He is in urgent need of recovery. Nathan Martorella, 23, is the Padres’ fifth-round pick in 2022. His primary position in the field is first base and he has long-range firepower. He was also sent to the Fall League last year to gain experience. he started from 2A like Marsee. His current measurements are .292/.393/.427, which is relatively promising.

Although Arraez’s results with the Marlins this year aren’t very impressive, .299/.347/.372, which is slightly lower than his career average before this year (.326/.379/.427), following all, size of the sample is still small and the season has just started. Early in the game, the Marlins really don’t need to “take the loss and sell” at this point, and it’s regarding to sell cheap (the Marlins took most of the salary, but they mightn’t trade for players currently playing in the major leagues), the farm players don’t have enough potential and the ceiling isn’t high enough), and Padres fans can feel satisfied and excited. After all, Arraez is on top. -The base rate advantage can provide a steady stream of scoring opportunities, and it tries to force its way out of the National League’s significant fighting ability.
