The MLB trade deadline will be complicated as many teams are in playoff contention, creating a potential slow period if they remain competitive. The Arizona Diamondbacks recently suffered a setback against the Miami Marlins, which decreased their playoff odds to below 20%. Corbin Burnes is out for the season, and Gallen's performance has been lackluster, adding to the Diamondbacks' struggles. Eugenio Suarez stands out as a key trade candidate, given his strong performance this season, including 26 home runs and a low strikeout rate.
Eugenio Suarez is having a huge power season, hitting .254/.324/.564 with 26 home runs, recently belting his 300th home run to cement his underrated career. His strikeout rate is the lowest it's been since 2018 as he has made a concerted effort to swing a little more often early in the count.
Arizona's playoff odds decreased by about 11 percentage points following a weekend sweep at the hands of the Miami Marlins, now under 20%.
With Corbin Burnes done for the season and Gallen struggling with a 5.75 ERA, the Diamondbacks' rotation hasn't been competitive, making a postseason run unlikely.
This year's MLB trade deadline is complicated with many teams in contention, leading to a possibly slow deadline if clubs remain in playoff races.
