New York continues to be linked to trade rumors aiming to upgrade their infield as well as adding potential pitching depth.<\/p>\n<p>The Yankees could turn to one of their young prospects as an eventual upgrade to Jazz Chisholm. Another option is for New York to explore the trade market and acquire a veteran who may be more ready to help the Yankees in their push to win the World Series.<\/p>\n<p>Yahoo Sports\u2019 Russell Dorsey labeled the Yankees as one of the top potential landing spots for Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Su\u00e1rez.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRight-handed power is hard to come by in baseball these days, which makes Eugenio Su\u00e1rez a highly coveted player,\u201d Dorsey wrote in a June 18, 2025, story titled, \u201c7 players who could be on the move at the MLB trade deadline: Chris Sale, Eugenio Su\u00e1rez, Emmanuel Clase and more.\u201d \u201cThe D-backs\u2019 third baseman has been one of the game\u2019s top power threats this season, batting .234 with 21 home runs and 58 RBI.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd that\u2019s nothing new: Since the 2019 season, he ranks sixth in MLB in homers, behind only Aaron Judge, Pete Alonso, Kyle Schwarber, Shohei Ohtani and Matt Olson,\u201d Dorsey added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSu\u00e1rez, who will be a free agent at season\u2019s end, is also considered one of the game\u2019s top personalities and has the ability to bring a clubhouse together \u2014 an added benefit for any contender.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Potential Yankees Trade Target Eugenio Su\u00e1rez Is in the Final Season of a 7-Year, $66 Million Contract<\/h2>\n<p>Acquiring Suarez is not without risk as the veteran third baseman is in the final season of a seven-year, $66 million contract with the Diamondbacks. New York would likely only trade for Suarez if the team is aiming to re-sign the infielder.<\/p>\n<div id=\"a9f40becea446d8952fcf968c12c5b2b\">\n<div>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Buster Olney mentioned that the Yankees would be interested in 3B Eugenio Suarez if the Diamondbacks chose to sell.<\/p>\n<p>With 21 HRs and a 127 wRC+, he would be a PERFECT power bat for the offense, and NYY has the pitching prospects to entice them.<\/p>\n<p>Should the Yanks get Geno?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The former All-Star is batting .251 with 71 hits, 25 home runs and 67 RBI amid a recent hot streak. Acquiring Suarez would give the Yankees yet another bat to pair with Aaron Judge and company.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Yankees Rumors: New York Linked to a Potential Trade for Pirates Infielder Isiah Kiner-Falefa<\/h2>\n<p>Another player who continues to be linked to the Yankees is Pittsburgh Pirates versatile infielder Isiah Kiner-Falefa. The former Gold Glove winner previously played two seasons for the Yankees in 2022 and 2023.<\/p>\n<p>While not as flashy of a name as Suarez, Kiner-Falefa would offer the Yankees immense versatility with the ability to play shortstop, third base and outfield. USA Today\u2019s Bob Nightengale reported that the Yankees are keeping an eye on a potential reunion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe New York Yankees and San Francisco Giants are keeping a close eye on versatile Pittsburgh Pirates infielder Isiah Kiner-Falefa, who should be available at the trade deadline,\u201d Nightengale detailed in a June 22, story titled, \u201c\u2018Misunderstood\u2019 Manny Machado makes no apologies on his path to Hall of Fame.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Yankees bats have suddenly gone cold, likely prompting questions for the team\u2019s front office ahead of the deadline. During this recent stretch, the Yankees offense has been historically bad.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo one could have imagined that the Yankees\u2019 powerful offense would go AWOL, scoring seven runs in a seven-game span, losing six of them,\u201d Nightengale added. \u201cThe last time that happened? Would you believe Sept. 1-7, 1908, according to researcher Katie Sharp.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jonathan Adams is a veteran sports contributor covering the NFL, NBA and golf for Heavy.com.
