The Houston Astros are looking to make a deadline splash based on recent reporting. But, it's trending towards not the position they've been linked to for some time. Instead, they are pursuing a third baseman amid Issac Paredes' injury.

Arizona Diamondbacks slugger Eugenio Suarez avoids major injury after HBP, boosting his trade deadline value with clean test results.

Third baseman Eugenio Suarez is in his second season with the Arizona Diamondbacks after making his big-league debut in 2014. The 33-year-old right-handed power bat established himself as an offensive threat during his seven-year tenure with the Cincinnati Reds, where he made his first All-Star team in 2018 and smashed 189 home runs in 916 games.
