Giants' Asking Price for Luis Arraez 'Remains Very High': Report
Luis Arraez is a candidate to be moved at the MLB trade deadline, and the San Francisco Giants are looking for value in return.
The San Francisco Giants are holding firm on a high asking price for their versatile player Luis Arraez, according to recent reports. Despite his impressive statistics, including a .324 batting average and a .801 OPS, the Giants appear uninterested in retaining him beyond the current season. Arraez, a multi-time MLB All-Star and Silver Slugger winner, has struggled to find consistent interest from other teams due to his lack of defensive prowess and base-running abilities.
However, his advanced statistics and recent performance suggest he may be undervalued. Teams like the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox, who need complementary players to their power hitters, could potentially make a move. Alternatively, the Giants may let Arraez's $12 million contract expire without a trade.
