San Diego Padres stars Fernando Tatis Jr. and Luis Arraez have started the 2025 season on a good note. The duo is projecting amazing offensive numbers as San Diego has rushed to the best record in the major leagues this season.

They are currently 15-4 for the campaign with a win percentage of .789. They acquire the top spot in the NL West standings and lead the incumbent World Champions by 1.5 games.

Both Tatis and Arraez love to move in style and showcase their snazzy fashion sense. After completing their six-game homestand against the Colorado Rockies and the Chicago Cubs, the Padres have now hit the road to take on the Houston Astros in a three-game series at Daikin Park in Houston, TX.

Upon reaching Houston and attending training sessions, Fernando Tatis Jr. shared some of his fit checks in a social media post on Thursday. The caption of the post read:

"On & Off."

Luis Arraez featured in a couple of images in the Instagram post and was quick to drop a one-line reaction, praising and hyping up Tatis Jr.'s movement in style on and off the diamond. His comment read:

"Tell me my boy."

Arraez, too, has been fairly decent at the plate as well in defense on first base this season. He has a .275 batting average, two home runs, five RBIs, and a .693 OPS in 19 games this campaign. He is projecting 20+ home runs and 50+ RBIs in 2025.
