PHOENIX, ARIZONA - JULY 19: Eugenio Suárez #28 of the Arizona Diamondbacks hits a two-run home run during the first inning against the St. Louis Cardinals at Chase Field on July 19, 2025 in Phoenix, Arizona.

Overview

  • General Manager Brian Cashman has publicly outlined needs for a third baseman, rotation depth and bullpen help as the trade deadline looms.
  • YES Network insider Jack Curry reports the Yankees have yet to engage in substantive talks with the Diamondbacks about Suárez and may still pursue negotiations.
  • Bleacher Report’s Zachary Rymer and the Seattle Times’ Adam Jude indicate the Seattle Mariners are emerging as the frontrunners to reacquire Suárez, putting New York at risk of missing out.
  • Struggling third baseman Oswald Peraza faces possible demotion or trade if the Yankees land a high-impact rental, amplifying pressure on New York’s in-house options.
  • Analysts suggest the Yankees could include top pitching prospect Cam Schlittler or prospect Spencer Jones in offers for Suárez, highlighting the premium required to fill the third-base void.
