The Diamondbacks acquired Suarez from the Mariners on Wednesday in exchange for Seby Zavala and Carlos Vargas, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Suarez stumbled to a .232/.323/.391 batting line this season in Seattle, although he did hit 22 home runs and drive in 96 runs. The 32-year-old is owed $11.3 million in 2024 and has a $15 million club option (or $2 million buyout) for 2025. Suarez should provide more stability at a third base spot which was a revolving door for Arizona in 2023.
Eugenio Suarez Belts 22nd homer in loss
Suarez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a loss to the Rangers on Saturday.
Analysis: Suarez's eighth-inning solo blast was bittersweet in that it served as the only run of the night for the Mariners in a loss that eliminated Seattle from postseason contention. The homer also snapped a power drought for Suarez, who'd last left the yard Sept. 15. With 96 runs driven in on the season, Suarez enters Sunday's regular-season finale with an outside chance of reaching the 100-RBI mark for the third time in his career and first time since 2019.
