Suarez Watch Has Every Contender on Edge
Most trade deadline injuries hit one fanbase. When it's Eugenio Suárez, at least 12 fanbases feel it. After taking a shot to the hand—again—during a game last night, the Arizona Diamondbacks slugger is officially day-to-day. Early imaging came back clean, but with more testing on the way, contender GMs are circling like sharks.

Phillies Swing Big as Bohm Battles Injury
Fit: The Philadelphia Phillies are all-in. Alec Bohm’s rib issue adds urgency, but even healthy, Suárez is an offensive upgrade.
Mock Package:
RHP Mick Abel (Triple-A)
3B Aroon Escobar (High-A)
Abel’s electric stuff flashed in a duel with Paul Skenes, and he owns a 1.80 ERA in Triple-A. Escobar’s 11 HRs and 131 wRC+ in Low-A earned him a quick promotion. This package delivers MLB-ready rotation talent and an emerging infielder.

Mariners Could Rekindle Chemistry With Suarez
Fit: The Seattle Mariners already made a splash with Josh Naylor and are reportedly not done. Enter: a Suárez reunion.
Suárez mashed 31 homers and posted a 132 wRC+ in his first Seattle stint in 2022. While his 2023 dipped to league average, the power and glove remained real. Now, Seattle wants him back—and the price will be steeper this time.
Mock Package:
RHP Logan Evans (MLB)
SS Michael Arroyo (Double-A)
Evans has logged 59.1 solid MLB innings with a 3.64 ERA, and Arroyo brings big-time offensive upside at age 20 with a .274/.419/.502 slash and 154 wRC+. That’s a win-win chip combo.
Cubs Push In During Tucker Window
Fit: The Chicago Cubs went all-in by acquiring Kyle Tucker from the Houston Astros this offseason, and with free agency looming, maximizing their 2025 prospects matters. Suárez boosts their infield thump instantly.
Mock Package:
RHP Jaxon Wiggins (Double-A)
RHP Brody McCullough (Double-A)
1B Jonathon Long (Triple-A)
Wiggins owns a 2.02 ERA and 79 Ks in 62.1 IP. McCullough’s 1.84 ERA adds sneaky value, and Long’s .314/.402/.501 Triple-A slash proves MLB-ready upside. A balanced offer with arm strength and a power bat.

Astros Look to Patch Paredes Injury with Firepower
Fit: The Houston Astros hold a narrow AL West lead over the Seattle Mariners—but Isaac Paredes’ hamstring injury creates a void at third base. Suárez would slot in perfectly to give them another bat with postseason bite.
Mock Package:
RHP Miguel Ullola (Triple-A)
RHP Anderson Brito (High-A)
RHP Luis Contreras (MLB)
RHP Bryce Mayer (Double-A)
This is a four-arm bundle headlined by Ullola’s 96 Ks in 73.1 IP and Mayer’s 3.38 ERA across two levels. Contreras is bullpen-ready, and Britto adds high-A depth. Quantity and upside for Arizona.
