The dual all-star had pinched 36 home runs to join an MLB-Tooning 87 RBIs up to and including 105 games this season for the D-backs (albeit on an overwhelming .248 battle average). Suarez Also memorable a four-humor game earlier this year.
Now that Arizona quickly fell off the map this season on 51-58, it was anything but a foregone conclusion that Suarez would be traded prior to Thursday’s deadline. A few days ago he had a poorly timed fear with a relevant hit-by-pitch (Video here), but had since returned to the line-up for the D-backs.
As for the Mariners, they are going for 57-51 this season (currently good for the third and final Wildcard place in the Al). Suarez Had a number of large MLB teams who asked for him in recent daysBut Seattle eventually won the Sweepstakes for him.
