Luis Arraez has put a charge in the Padres' offense; Michael King has split the quality of his starts evenly; Robert Suarez pitches in non-save situation again
Good morning from Cincinnati, The Padres are loving Luis Arraez, and Luis Arraez is loving the Padres. “I enjoyed this game right now,” he said last night after going 4-for-5. “Because I feel like a family here.” He has endeared himself to his new family by infusing its offense with opportunity. Since joining the Padres May 4 following a trade from the Marlins, Arraez ranks fourth in the major leagues with a .391 average and 15th with a .425 on-base percentage.
Not surprisingly, those streaks have all come in King's five quality starts, the fifth of which was last night’s 6⅔-inning outing in which he allowed three runs on four hits and two walks. King’s first season as a full-time starter has had a Jekyll and Hyde quality. In his five quality starts, King has allowed a total of four runs and has a 0.76 WHIP over 34⅓ innings. In his other five starts, he has allowed 25 runs and has a 2.02 WHIP over 26⅔ innings.
