The Arizona Diamondbacks are picking up the 2025 club option on third baseman Eugenio Suarez worth $15 million according to Jesse Rogers of ESPN. The veteran infielder had a tale of two seasons. During the first half, the third baseman hit for a mere .216/.302/.366 slash line with just ten home runs and 48 RBI. However, after the mid-summer classic, the 33-year-old posted a much-improved .307/.341/.602 line with 20 home runs and 53 RBI. He boasted an above-average 11.3% barrel rate and 42.4% hard-hit rate which suggests his power numbers should continue to be a factor in 2025. Suarez remains a safe bet for upside power as a corner infielder this upcoming season.
Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suarez slugged his 25th homer on Saturday in an 11-5 loss to the Houston Astros. The veteran is now hitting .244 with 25 home runs, 88 RBI, two stolen bases and 76 runs scored. Signed as a free agent last winter, Suarez looks to be on track for a 30-home-run season as the Diamondbacks fight for a playoff spot. Over his last 15 games, Suarez has seven home runs, 19 RBI, and is hitting a robust .385.
Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suarez continued to swing a hot bat on Sunday, going 4-for-4 with his 20th homer in a 7-5 win over the Boston Red Sox. Suarez added three RBIs and two runs to a stellar overall line. The 33-year-old took Tanner Houck deep in the sixth with two men aboard, putting the D-backs on top for good in this one. Suarez has been very good since the calendar flipped to July, launching 14 homers and driving in 47 runs in 47 games since then. He should be rostered in all fantasy leagues while he's swinging the stick so well, and his owners should hope that he can carry it through the rest of the season.
Eugenio Suarez Picks Up Three Hits With Grand Slam
Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suarez picked up three hits in Wednesday's victory over the visiting division-rival Colorado Rockies at Chase Field, blasting a grand slam with five RBI in the victory. Suarez powered a grand slam off Rockies right-hander Riley Pint to left-center field, his 18th home run of the season, to extend the D-backs' lead to 10-3 in the sixth inning on Wednesday against Colorado. In 33 games since July 7, the 33-year-old veteran slugger is batting .309 (38-for-123) with 12 homers, 35 RBI, and 28 runs scored.
Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suarez went 4-for-6 with three homers and five RBI against the Washington Nationals on Tuesday night. The 33-year-old has had a very productive July, hitting .326 with 10 homers and 27 RBI. He is slashing .326/.394/.744 in the month, which was much-needed for him as he had struggled for much of the season. He was starting to hear footsteps from prospect Deyvison De Los Santos, but De Los Santos was just dealt to Miami at the deadline. The hot month and trade of his competition mean Suarez is locked into his starting role. He is a streaky hitter who might be worth a look on the waiver wire.
Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suarez went 2-for-5 with a single and his 10th home run of the season in Saturday's 12-1 romp over the Blue Jays. The veteran drove in a pair of runs and scored twice as well. It was the third homer in the last four games as Suarez has really turned it on in July. The 32-year-old came into July slashing a paltry .196/.279/.312, but is slashing .317/.417/.707 in July, with four doubles and four home runs during the month so far. He now owns a .211-10-46-38-2 line with a .293 wOBA and 87 wRC+ for the season.
Eugenio Suarez Homers, Drives In Three In Wednesday's Win
Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suarez turned in a big performance in his team's 7-5 win over the Atlanta Braves on Wednesday. Suarez went 2-for-4 with a homer, two runs, and three RBI to help power the D-Backs to victory. His homer was a two-run shot off Atlanta starter Charlie Morton in the second inning. It was an absolute bomb that traveled 452 feet with an exit velocity of 110.6 MPH. That being said, Suarez is struggling in his first season in Arizona, hitting just .208 with eight homers, 34 runs, 43 RBI, and two steals over 307 at-bats. That being said, he is showing signs of life of late, hitting .280 with two homers and 12 RBI over his past 15 contests.
Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suarez had a big day at the dish on Sunday, going 3-for-4 with a homer, a double, two runs, and five RBI in a 9-1 victory over the San Diego Padres. Suarez hit a two-run homer off Dylan Cease to break a 1-1 tie in the seventh inning, leading to a barrage of runs that led to the game becoming a blowout. Suarez has had a tough season but he is showing signs of life in July, in which he is 8-for-19 with three runs, a homer, and seven RBI. The 32-year-old will need to show more before he becomes a viable fantasy option again, but he is worth keeping an eye on in deeper leagues.
Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suarez is getting the day off on Thursday for the series finale against the visiting Minnesota Twins. It's been a rough year for Suarez, to say the least, in his first year in the desert with the D-backs. He's gone 1-for-22 (.046) with a triple, an RBI and eight strikeouts in his last seven games and is hitting a miserable .192/.274/.312 with six home runs, 32 RBI and 86 strikeouts in 303 trips to the plate in his first 77 games in 2024. If the 32-year-old veteran continues to struggle going into the second half of the season, he could find himself on the bench more often. Infielder Kevin Newman will make the start at the hot corner on Thursday and will hit seventh for the Snakes against Twins right-hander David Festa, who will be making his major-league debut.
Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suarez's plate vision was displayed in Monday's 5-3 loss against the St. Luis Cardinals. Suarez went 3-for-4 with two doubles, two RBI, and one run, finally connecting at the plate after going hitless in back-to-back games over the weekend against the Giants. He is 21-for-85 (.247) with five doubles, two homers, 16 RBI, 16 runs, eight walks and 24 strikeouts through 23 games. The season has had ups and downs for the third baseman and with his recent slump, the matchup against St. Luis favors him. With the favorable matchups for this week, Suarez is a strong stash option with upside across all formats.
