Mariners Pursue Diamondbacks' Suarez as MLB Trade Deadline Nears
30 Jul
Summary
- Mariners acquire reliever Caleb Ferguson, take Reds out of Suarez race
- Suarez has 36 home runs, 87 RBIs this season for Diamondbacks
- Seattle, Cubs, Tigers, Phillies among teams interested in Suarez
As the 2025 MLB trade deadline approaches on July 31, the Seattle Mariners have emerged as a key player in the market, with their sights set on acquiring Arizona Diamondbacks' third baseman Eugenio Suarez.
The Mariners have already made one move to bolster their roster, acquiring left-handed reliever Caleb Ferguson from the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday. This transaction has taken the Cincinnati Reds out of the running for Suarez, as they completed a deal to acquire third baseman Ke'Bryan Hayes from the Pirates on the same day.
Suarez has been a standout performer for the Diamondbacks this season, scoring 64 runs in 106 games and hitting 19 doubles, 36 home runs, and 87 RBIs. His impressive offensive production has made him a highly sought-after target, with the Mariners, Chicago Cubs, Detroit Tigers, and Philadelphia Phillies all reportedly engaged in discussions to acquire the 2025 All-Star.
The Mariners are looking to build on their recent success and make a push for the playoffs, and the addition of Suarez could provide a significant boost to their lineup. With the trade deadline rapidly approaching, the Mariners will need to act quickly if they hope to secure the services of the veteran slugger.
