The New York Yankees are looking for answers at third base, and many analysts think they've found their guy in Arizona Diamondbacks star Eugenio Suárez. CBS Sports writer Mike Axisa urged the Yankees to make a big swing for both Suárez and Diamondbacks right-handed pitcher Merrill Kelly.
New information is coming out about why the New York Yankees reached a deal for Ryan McMahon, and not Eugenio Suarez.
"The Yankees also need starting pitcher help, and the Diamondbacks have two pitchers — Zac Gallen and Merrill Kelly — that could be moved at the deadline. The Yankees will package one of them with Suarez to complete what will be the biggest blockbuster of the deadline as New York competes with the Blue Jays for the American League East crown."
Major League Baseball's trade deadline is scheduled for next Thursday, which means teams have less than a week to get their midsummer shopping done. The moves have already started, as the Mariners recently acquired Josh Naylor from the Diamondbacks while the Yankees acquired Ryan McMahon in a trade with the Rockies.
