Mariners Express Interest in Reacquiring Eugenio Suárez Ahead of Trade Deadline

The Seattle Mariners have reportedly inquired with the Arizona Diamondbacks about acquiring slugging third baseman Eugenio Suárez, whom they previously traded away in 2023 as a salary dump. With Mariners' third basemen struggling offensively since Suárez's departure (ranking 27th in home runs and 19th in WAR), the team is looking to upgrade their lineup. Suárez, 34, recently hit his 36th home run of the season on Monday and is currently viewed as a top rental candidate available on the trade market, as the Diamondbacks trail the third wild-card spot by 5.5 games.
