Diamondbacks' Eugenio Suarez Hits Back-to-Back Multi-Homer Games Amid Trade Discussions

Arizona Diamondbacks All-Star third baseman Eugenio Suarez has been the subject of trade rumors, especially after hitting his 35th home run of the season during back-to-back multi-homer games against the St. Louis Cardinals. Suarez is having an excellent season, trailing only Seattle's Cal Raleigh in multi-homer games and leading the National League in home runs for the time being. Notably, no MLB player has ever been traded in-season after reaching 35 home runs, making Suarez's potential trade historically significant. Suarez has expressed a preference to be traded back to the Detroit Tigers, where he began his MLB career, and where he would be playing meaningful baseball given the Tigers' strong standing in the AL Central. The Diamondbacks, on the other hand, are struggling in the NL West and may be sellers at the trade deadline. Suarez himself acknowledged the possibility of finishing where his career started, indicating an openness to such a move if it happens.
