Three potential landing spots for free-agent third baseman Eugenio Suarez

Third baseman Eugenio Suarez solidified his case last season as the best power hitter available in free agency in 2025. Suarez posted a .228/.298/.526 batting line in his 657 plate appearances between the Arizona Diamondbacks and Seattle Mariners, hitting 49 homers and 28 doubles.

Pitcher Framber Valdez did not have the walk year he hoped for with the Houston Astros.
