2024 Fantasy Outlook
Arias received a taste of the majors in 2022 and followed up with his first extended look last season, and he finished with a .210/.275/.352 slash line, 10 homers, 26 RBI and 36 runs in 122 games. His swing-and-miss issues in the minors unsurprisingly followed him to the big leagues, as he struck out at a 32.8 percent clip. He provides strong and versatile defense and saw action at all four infield positions in addition to right field, with most of his action coming between shortstop and first base. Arias is likely to stick on Cleveland's Opening Day roster in 2024, but he'll likely need to flash more offensively in order to have more than a utility role. Read Past Outlooks

Picks up steal
Arias went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Friday's 6-2 loss to Atlanta.
ANALYSIS
Arias' last four starts have been evenly split between second and third, providing opportunities for Jose Ramirez and Andres Gimenez to get rest. Arias is off to a solid start this season in a utility role, slashing .278/.304/.426 with three steals, one home run, eight RBI and seven runs scored across 56 plate appearances. He's already played at six different positions this season, so he should be able to be in the lineup semi-regularly despite lacking a single obvious path to playing time.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Leg up for shortstop job
Arias [wrist] will have a "leg up" over Brayan Rocchio and Tyler Freeman for the Guardians' shortstop job heading into 2024, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Arias suffered a right wrist fracture late in the season but should make a full recovery well ahead of spring training. He was being used as the club's regular shortstop down the stretch before getting hurt, finishing the year with a .628 OPS and 10 home runs over 122 games. Rocchio will probably be Arias' biggest challenger for the gig and is considered to have more upside. Whoever wins the job out of spring training wouldn't figure to have much of a leash.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2020
2019
Arias actually took a step back in 2022, posting a .240/.310/.406 slash line in 77 games at Triple-A Columbus. He also got his first taste of the big leagues, hitting a home run with five RBI and a stolen base while slashing .191/.321/.319 in 57 plate appearances for the Guardians. Still a decent prospect entering his age-23 season, Arias' biggest issue at this point may be a consistent spot in the lineup. Jose Ramirez is signed long-term at third base, while Amed Rosario and Andres Gimenez proved to be one of last year's most surprisingly good middle-infield duos. Arias saw time at all four infield positions during his cup of coffee in the majors, so he should at least provide pressure on the starters to maintain their hitting if he breaks camp with the Guardians. That said, his numbers from last year suggest he could benefit from another stint in Triple-A to build up some confidence after a rough year.
