Arcia was named the Diamondbacks' Minor League Player of the Month on Friday, ArizonaSports.com reports.
Arcia failed to win a roster spot with the Diamondbacks coming out of spring training, but that hasn't prevented the outfielder from raking at Reno, where he hit .367 with six home runs and 22 RBI in May. The 26-year-old is slashing .364/.422/.752 with 13 long balls overall on the season, but since Arcia isn't a member of the 40-man roster and the Diamondbacks don't have a pressing need for a corner outfielder, a promotion to the big leagues doesn't seem imminent.
