I track 67 players this year. Mostly higher priced guys and a few personal favorites.

Lower priced guys definitely get bigger multiples. I'd expect that Taylor Ward is actually the biggest % gain. Probably has gone from $2 to $40 or something.

Arraez is not on the list. I'm glad to see him skyrocketing though. If he's 4x from spring, he's probably 5x from November. Goes to show that batting average by itself can drive prices if it's high enough. Not that I didn't learn that lesson with Tony Gwynn and Wade Boggs. Now, if I could just get somebody to go 40/40 but with a low BA and not many RBI....
