The Diamondbacks made a significant trade by sending first baseman Josh Naylor to the Mariners for pitching prospects, marking their decision to sell amid deadline negotiations. With Naylor gone, potential deals for other players like Eugenio Suarez, who has an impressive 36 home runs this season, have generated interest. Additionally, Orioles' first baseman Ryan O'Hearn, enjoying a career year, could attract teams needing offensive talent. However, O'Hearn's defensive limitations may complicate his fit with certain franchises seeking to enhance their rosters.
The Diamondbacks have sold off rental player Josh Naylor to the Mariners in exchange for pitching prospects Brandyn Garcia and Ashton Izzi. The biggest question now is who will follow him out the door?
Eugenio Suarez is viewed as a key rental player this trade deadline with an impressive 36 home runs this season. Interest also surrounds outfielder Lourdes Gurriel Jr. and the final year-and-a-half of his contract.
Ryan O'Hearn, a left-handed slugger from the Orioles, is having a career year. With a .281/.375/.452 slash line and 12 home runs in 89 games, teams needing offensive strength might show interest.
O'Hearn's limited defensive versatility could challenge teams like the Yankees, Dodgers, and Mets, who are typically surefire buyers as they assess their suitability for the upcoming deadline.
