Arizona Diamondbacks acquire Eugenio Suarez from the Seattle Mariners

The Arizona Diamondbacks have made their first big move this offseason by acquiring Eugenio Suarez from the Seattle Mariners, per ESPN’s Jeff Passen.

In return, the D-backs sent reliever Carlos Vargas and catcher Seby Zavala.

Last season with the Mariners, Suarez played in all 162 games; he hit 22 home runs, drove in 96 runs, and had a .714 slugging percentage.

Suarez, a known power hitter, also had a couple notable years with the Reds where he hit 30+ home runs.

With Evan Longoria likely gone, the Diamondbacks made it clear at the beginning of this offseason that they were in search of a third baseman. Now they have their guy.
