Eugenio Suarez News: Returning to Seattle

The Mariners acquired Suarez from the Diamondbacks on Wednesday in exchange for first baseman Tyler Locklear and right-handers Juan Burgos and Hunter Cranton, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

After slashing .248/.321/.577 with 36 home runs through 105 games with the Diamondbacks this season, Suarez will return to Seattle, where he spent the 2022 and 2023 season. Suarez will replace Ben Williamson as the club's third baseman and is likely to bat in the heart of the order, giving the Mariners a much-needed power bat as the team looks to make a push for a playoff spot over the final two months of the season.
