"You fill my life with joy" - Luis Arraez celebrates 'magical month' of November with heartfelt birthday wishes for his 3 daughters
The San Diego Padres infielder Luis Arraez has been enjoying this offseason with his family and celebrated his daughter's birthday this month. Reminiscing about the November month, Arraez posted some pictures on his Instagram, with his family donning matching night suits.
In the Post, Arraez talked about how the month of November is one of the important times for his family since his daughters were born in this month.
"November is a magical month in our home because we get to celebrate the birthdays of my three wonderful princesses: Emma, Esther, and Esthela! Happy birthday to my little stars! You fill my life with joy and unforgettable moments every single day. Gos bless you all!" Arraez captioned the post.
Arraez's wife, Gladys Peñalver, is a fashion model and homemaker who shares moments with her family on social media. However, despite their openness on the internet, the couple's wedding date remains a mystery, as they have never revealed it.
In the upcoming 2025 season, the Padres will look to see some improvements in Arraez's play, hoping he can get closer to his .379 career batting average. Arraez wasn't his best in the previous season, even though he secured his third batting title with a .314 batting average, his performance was still not on par with his other seasons with the Padres.
The Padres general manager A.J. Preller has held high hopes for Luis Arraez
Luis Arraez was playing through the torn ligament in his left thumb in the season's final three months. Arraez didn't let it affect his performance and ended up getting his record of the batting title even in the season proving to be a bit lackluster for the slugger.
Padres general manager A.J. Preller has talked about how he would like to see some changes in the player, as he can do wonders for the team.
"I don’t think it’s like he can’t," A.J. Preller said this week. "I think he chooses to hit versus taking a walk and getting on base. I think he can make an adjustment. To me, he’s very valuable."
"He’s going to go out and rake," Preller said when asked about the value Arraez provides in his final year of arbitration eligibility."… The question, I think, for him is going to be, does he tighten it up and can he take the on-base percentage higher."
Luis Arraez is the first player to win three consecutive batting titles since Miguel Cabrera in 2013. He also became the first Padres to win the accolade since Hall of Famer Tony Gwynn.
