Arraez is absent from Saturday's lineup against the Diamondbacks.
The Padres will sit Arraez and other starters having already clinched a spot in the postseason, per Bob Nightengale of USA Today. Arraez's .314 batting average is the only thing standing in the way of Shohei Ohtani's pursuit of the Triple Crown. Jurickson Profar will serve as the designated hitter and bat in the leadoff spot against Diamondbacks southpaw Eduardo Rodriguez.
