The New York Yankees opted out of a potential Eugenio Suárez blockbuster deal and the Arizona Diamondbacks eventually traded him to the Seattle Mariners.

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.
