Eugenio Suarez’s impact on for the D-Backs:
Eugenio Suárez has been one of the bright spots for the D-Backs in the 2025 season, as he has been hitting a .248 batting average, highlighted by his 36 home runs and 87 RBI’s. Suárez has been vocal about how much he has loved his time playing with the D-Backs and the impact it has had on his career. As Suárez enters free agency next season, there will be discussions on his possible return to the desert.

One of the biggest issues for the D-Backs has been problems with their pitching staff. Not only have injuries played a major part, but the bullpen help was nonexistent. The frustrations piled on top of each other, and General Manager Mike Hazen has been adamant on getting pitching prospects to fix what this Snakes ball club has been dealing with.
Seattle is currently second in the AL West with a 57-51 record and are looking to help bring another big bat alongside Cal Raleigh. Suárez joins a Mariners team that is ready to strike for at least a wildcard spot.
