Gabriel Arias is off to a remarkable start in the Venezuelan Professional Baseball League, batting .500 with five home runs and 11 RBIs in his first seven games. At just 24 years old, he has significantly improved from his previous season, where he struggled in the MLB and Triple-A. Currently on Cleveland's 40-man roster, Arias began the 2024 MLB season with the Guardians but faced challenges, leading to his assignment to Triple-A. However, he rebounded well there, showcasing his potential with a .317 average and strong playoff performance. His exceptional winter league performance raises hopes for a breakout 2025 season.
