Giants Manager Makes Arraez Statement

With the Giants struggling, Arraez has been mentioned in a lot of trade rumors.
Recently, manager Tony Vitello spoke about the four-time MLB All-Star (h/t NBC Sports Area & California).
Reporter: “Tony, if this was Arraez’ last home game in a Giants uniform, what lasting impact did he make in his four months here?”
Vitello: “Made everybody’s day better… My initial answer would be we don’t have enough time here. And, I’d put it in a note to him, and I’d put it in a note to you all. So maybe we’ll revisit that question if it is the case. But I think a succinct, exact answer is… You could pick any fan you want. You guys, players, coaches. Literally made everyone’s day better every day… There wasn’t any days off for that theory either.”
