  • Jonathan Arauz: Cut by Dodgers

    The Dodgers released Arauz on July 2.

    After failing to win a spot on the Dodgers' Opening Day roster, Arauz had spent all season at Triple-A Oklahoma City. He slashed just .227/.286/.324 with three home runs and two stolen bases over 245 plate appearances before Oklahoma City moved Arauz off its roster to make room for another utility infielder in Alan Trejo, who signed a minor-league deal with the Dodgers.

  • Dodgers' Jonathan Arauz: Receives minors deal from Dodgers

    Arauz signed a minor-league contract with the Dodgers on Dec. 15.

    Arauz is a career .184/.253/.308 hitter in 95 games at the major-league level, most recently going 8-for-59 (.136) over 27 games with the Mets in 2023. The 25-year-old will give the Dodgers some utility infielder depth.

  • Jonathan Arauz: Elects free agency

    Arauz elected to become a free agent Tuesday.

    The 25-year-old infielder was removed from the Mets' 40-man roster last week and passed through waivers unclaimed. He's a career .184/.253/.308 hitter in 95 games (262 plate appearances) at the major-league level.

  • Mets' Jonathan Arauz: Removed from 40-man roster

    The Mets placed Arauz on outright waivers Friday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

    Arauz appeared in 27 games for the Mets in 2023, slashing just .136/.203/.288 across 66 plate appearances. The 25-year-old infielder will have the option to elect free agency if he clears waivers, but Arauz likely wouldn't be able to land more than a minor-league deal.

  • Mets' Jonathan Arauz: Optioned to Triple-A

    Arauz was optioned to Triple-A Syracuse on Monday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

    Arauz is clearing out to make room for Luis Guillorme's (calf) return from the injured list. The 25-year-old has managed a lowly .491 OPS in 27 games with the big club this season.

  • Mets' Jonathan Arauz: Clubs pinch-hit homer Thursday

    Arauz hit a three-run home run in his only plate appearance during Thursday's 11-1 rout of Arizona.

    Pinch-hitting for Francisco Lindor in the eighth inning with the Mets already ahead by seven runs, Arauz put an exclamation point on the victory when Scott McGough left a splitter up in the zone and watched it sail over the wall in right-center field. It's only Arauz's eighth hit in 58 at-bats for the Mets in 2023, but three of them have left the yard as the 25-year-old infielder continues to display a developing power stroke after he socked 14 homers in 95 games for Triple-A Syracuse this season.

  • Mets' Jonathan Arauz: Loses starting spot to Vientos

    Arauz is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

    Arauz had started at third base in five of the past six games, but his time as a near-everyday player in the Mets infield has likely come to an end. Mark Vientos (wrist) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list Sunday and will draw the start at third base in the series finale with the Angels, sending Arauz into a utility role.

  • Mets' Jonathan Arauz: Hits bench Wednesday

    Arauz is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against Atlanta.

    He'll give way to Danny Mendick at third base Wednesday, but Arauz looks like he'll operate as the Mets' primary option at the position versus right-handed pitching while both Mark Vientos (wrist) and Luis Guillorme (calf) are on the injured list. Arauz started each of the past three games, going 1-for-8 with a walk and an RBI.

  • Mets' Jonathan Arauz: Getting steady playing time

    Arauz will start at third base and bat ninth in Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

    Arauz was on the bench for Saturday's 13-2 win, but he'll be back in the lineup for what will be his sixth start in seven games as the Mets close out their series with the Cardinals. Since being called up from Triple-A Syracuse on Aug. 7, Arauz has gone just 3-for-32 at the dish, though two of his hits have been home run. The Mets look content to continue deploying the lefty-hitting Arauz as a strong-side platoon player in the infield while Mark Vientos (wrist) and Luis Guillorme (calf) are on the shelf.

  • Mets' Jonathan Arauz: Swats another homer

    Arauz went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 7-4 loss to the Pirates.

    Making his second straight start at second base and batting seventh, Arauz took Colin Selby deep in the seventh inning -- his second homer in as many games -- as he went back-to-back with DJ Stewart. The Mets have shifted Jeff McNeil to right field for the moment to help cover the absence of Starling Marte (groin), which has opened the door for the team to take a longer look at Arauz. His track record doesn't suggest he'll take advantage, however, and through 226 big-league plate appearances since he made his debut with the Red Sox in 2020, the 25-year-old infielder is slashing .193/.265/.322.

  • Mets' Jonathan Arauz: Cranks first homer with Mets

    Arauz went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in Monday's 7-2 victory over Pittsburgh.

    Arauz extended New York's lead to 5-2 with a two-run homer off Quinn Priester in the fourth inning, his first long ball since June 26 last season. The 25-year-old infielder has started in five of the Mets' prior eight games, though he's gone just 3-for-23 (.130) with 4 RBI since his recall from Triple-A Syracuse.

  • Mets' Jonathan Arauz: Summoned from Triple-A

    Arauz was recalled from Triple-A Syracuse on Monday. He'll start at second base and bat ninth in Monday's game against the Cubs.

    Arauz had been optioned to Syracuse on Friday, but he'll be eligible to rejoin the Mets for their series with the Cubs after outfielder Starling Marte (groin) was placed on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. The 25-year-old has logged just six plate appearances in the big leagues this season but could see more involvement during his upcoming stint with the Mets as the organization looks to evaluate some lesser-established players late in the 2023 campaign.

  • Mets' Jonathan Arauz: Optioned to Syracuse

    The Mets optioned Arauz to Triple-A Syracuse on Friday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

    With Starling Marte (migraines) coming back from the injured list Friday, the Mets will send Arauz back to the minors to free up a roster spot. The 25-year-old went 1-for-6 during his latest stint in the majors and is slashing .244/.344/.429 through 395 plate appearances in Triple-A this year.

  • Mets' Jonathan Arauz: Selected to MLB roster

    The Mets selected Arauz's contract from Triple-A Syracuse on Wednesday.

    Arauz is starting at second base and batting seventh Wednesday against the Royals in what will be his first major-league game of the year. He had slashed .244/.344/.429 with 14 home runs and two stolen bases through 95 games this summer at the Triple-A level.

  • Orioles' Jonathan Arauz: Clears waivers

    Arauz cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Norfolk on Friday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

    Arauz hasn't appeared in a big-league game since late July and lost his spot on Baltimore's 40-man roster earlier in the week. The fact that he was a freely available 24-year-old middle infielder could potentially have interested teams, but his career .200/.269/.314 slash line in 68 major-league contests seemingly scared away any possible suitors.

  • Orioles' Jonathan Arauz: Designated for assignment

    Arauz was designated for assignment Tuesday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

    He had been on the restricted list at Triple-A Norfolk and will now be bumped off the 40-man roster. Arauz hit .132 in 41 MLB plate appearances and hit .250/.364/.286 in eight games with Norfolk.

  • Orioles' Jonathan Arauz: Sidelined at Triple-A

    Triple-A Norfolk placed Arauz on its restricted list Monday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

    After being optioned to Triple-A on Aug. 23, Arauz appeared in five games before Norfolk deactivated him. An explanation behind Arauz's placement on the restricted list isn't known, and it's unclear when the infielder might be ready to rejoin the Orioles' top affiliate.

  • Orioles' Jonathan Arauz: Reinstated, optioned to Triple-A

    Arauz (finger) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list and optioned to Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday, Nathan Ruiz of The Baltimore Sun reports.

    Arauz will report to Triple-A after missing just under a month while recovering from a sprained right middle finger. The 24-year-old has gone 5-for-11 with a double and four RBI while scoring a run and stealing a base over three games with Norfolk this year. Arauz will likely return to the big leagues at some point down the stretch.

  • Orioles' Jonathan Arauz: Beginning rehab assignment

    Arauz (finger) will begin a rehab assignment at High-A Aberdeen on Friday, Nathan Ruiz of The Baltimore Sun reports.

    Arauz took part in infield work Thursday and will be cleared for game action in the minors a day later. It's not yet clear how many rehab games he'll require, but he'll likely be in the mix to rejoin the Orioles sometime next week.

  • Orioles' Jonathan Arauz: Nearing rehab assignment

    Arauz (finger) took part in infield work Thursday and could be ready to start a minor-league rehab assignment in the near future, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

    Arauz has resided on the 10-day injured list since July 26 with a sprained right middle finger. Once activated, the 24-year-old will likely fill a utility role for the Orioles and isn't expected to receive frequent starts.
