Eugenio Suarez Receives Update After Yankees-Rockies Trade originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The New York Yankees have been in the market for a third baseman almost all season. After Oswaldo Cabrera went down with a season-ending leg injury, the Yankees were left searching for answers at the hot corner.

The New York Yankees' acquisition of third baseman Ryan McMahon from the Colorado Rockies came as a bit of a surprise after they were previously linked to another star slugger.

With only six days to go until Thursday's deadline, Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suárez has emerged as the top projected target for the Yankees -- which makes sense, considering he has 36 home runs, only one fewer than New York superstar Aaron Judge.

The Diamondbacks’ slugging All-Star third baseman hit his fifth home run in the last three games Monday night.

Several teams with postseason aspirations have reportedly been linked to Arizona Diamondbacks infielder Eugenio Suárez as the trade deadline draws closer.

The New York Yankees need a third baseman at the trade deadline, and Eugenio Suárez figures to be most teams' top target at the deadline.

The Yankees’ first hurdle to acquiring Eugenio Suárez will be the Diamondbacks actually deciding to sell. Then comes the stiffer

Suárez's current hot streak combined with the scarcity of impact bats available will embolden Arizona to ask for a king's ransom in return for his services. The Yankees could probably manage to hold on to George Lombard Jr. but they would be required to gut the remainder of their farm system to rent Suárez for a few months.
