Eugenio Suárez agreed to a one-year, $15 million deal with the Cincinnati Reds that includes a mutual option for 2027 and is expected to get most of his at-bats as designated hitter. Suarez hit 49 home runs in 2025, ranking fifth in the majors, with 36 homers in 106 games for Arizona that earned an All-Star selection and heavy trade interest. He struggled after the trade to Seattle, finishing .228/.298/.526 but posting a career-high 118 RBIs and delivering a key ALCS grand slam. Suarez has 325 career homers, 227 since 2019, high strikeout totals, strong durability, and is considered a popular teammate but a below-average third-base defender.
"is coming off a season in which he blasted 49 home runs, ranking fifth in the majors, in a season split between the Arizona Diamondbacks and Seattle Mariners. He did most of his damage with Arizona, hitting 36 home runs in 106 games, which earned him his second All-Star Game selection and then made him one of the most in-demand players at the trade deadline."
"He struggled after going to Seattle, however, hitting .189 in 53 games, dragging his final numbers down to .228/.298/.526, although he finished a career-high 118 RBIs. His go-ahead grand slam against the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 5 of the AL Championship Series put the Mariners one win away from their first World Series appearance before they lost the final two games."
