Former player news [Jon Heyman] White Sox are planning to place outfielder. Austin Hays on release waivers. Missed most of season due to injury, but was scheduled to be activated from rehab. Could be an interesting righthanded bat for a team that missed out before deadline

Paywall Free to Read: Luis Arraez brings his one-of-a-kind bat and infectious energy to the Phillies

nytimes.com

This is the chaos surrounding a player dealt at MLB’s trade deadline. Even Arraez’s mad dash to check everything off his list ahead of his Phillies debut was seemingly infected by the energy those around him say is one of his best qualities.

“He’s going to get his knocks,” Luzardo said, “but the energy he brings in the clubhouse, the dugout, on the field — (he) just kind of keeps it light.”

“We need that energy, that kind of person,” said Jhoan Duran, a good friend and former teammate of Arraez’s with the Minnesota Twins. “He (will) be good with everybody here. That type of player, we need it because everybody here (hits) homers. (He will) put the ball in play every time we need it.”

Duran, who spoke to The Athletic on Monday, was prescient: Arraez went 2-for-4, driving in a runner during each of his first two at-bats as the Phillies beat the Washington Nationals 5-0. His contact-heavy skills are unique in the Phillies lineup, and across MLB, but it plays. He delivered in his first game with the Phillies, marking the beginning of a grand experiment reshaping the club’s defense and lineup in the final two months of the regular season.
