The belief is that Krishna and Arjuna are the incarnations of Narayana and Nara respectively, also known as the twin God incarnation of Lord Vishnu. So, is it safe to say that Arjuna was a small part of Vishnu in Mahabharata?
And THAT explains his association with BOTH Draupadi AND Subhadra...
Subhi is Yogmaya - and Vishnu is also known as "mayapati" (master of maya)
KMG (right at the end) states that Draupadi is an incarnation of "Sree" (in India, "Sree" or "Shri" commonly refers to Lakshmi).

Arjun was regarded as an ansh of Vishnu by Ved Vyas. I found a translated passage from the BORI edition of the Mahabharat where Ved Vyas convinces Drupad to allow Draupadi's marriage to the Pandavas.
"Here is yet another great secret, eternal and known only to the gods, for your knowledge, knowing which you will be clear of all your doubts and hesitations. Vishnu has four arms, endowed with the wheel and so on. Yudhishthira, Bheema and the twins are these and as for Arjuna, he is Vishnu himself and Panchali is Lakshmi. Oh king, understand the four moortis of Vishnu and Vishnu himself as the four Pandavas and Arjuna, and Draupadi as the ocean-born Lakshmi. Vishnu who has four moortis and four vyoohas is incarnated on the earth along with Vasudeva and so on and Panchali is Kamala herself."
