The Seattle Mariners and Cincinnati Reds' fanbases have been dreaming for weeks of a reunion with Eugenio Suarez. The Arizona Diamondbacks' third baseman played seven seasons in Cincinnati, including a magnificent 49-homer campaign. He also spent two seasons in Seattle.
Suárez was traded to the Reds in 2014. He was an All-Star in 2018, but struggled in his last year in Cincinnati. Suárez posted a .198 batting average in 2021, the worst of his career.
With the MLB trade deadline looming, the Arizona Diamondbacks have traded first baseman Josh Naylor to the Seattle Mariners in exchange for two pitching prospects. The Mariners sent their 13th-ranked prospect Brandyn Garcia and their 16th-ranked prospect Ashton Izzi in return, both pitchers.
