Comment: Arai has been contributing to Hanshin's victories since his arrival. However, the 2009 season was a disaster for him. Because of his uncertain batting and his rough fielding he began to be nicknamed "painful". After becoming the clean-up this years, Arai is picking himself up, slowly but surely. Maybe he will recover the level he had shown with the national team. His favorite hobby: bothering Kanemoto.
