Their 6-0 loss to right-hander Paul Skenes on Sunday, July 27, meant the Diamondbacks left town having dropped two of three to a subpar Pittsburgh Pirates team. It also meant they lost a second consecutive game started by a pitcher who could be traded in the coming days.

Eugenio Suarez left the game after getting hit by a pitch on Monday. The Tigers have reportedly shown interest in trading for him.

The 34-year-old leads MLB in RBI with 87 and is arguably the best hitter rumored to be available at the July 31 trade deadline. The Diamondbacks, who fell to 51-56 after Monday’s loss, appear to be sellers and already traded first baseman Josh Naylor to the Seattle Mariners last week.

The Arizona Diamondbacks have made a big move this month, but they could continue to make more moves as the trade deadline draws closer.

On Thursday, the Seattle Mariners officially kicked off trade deadline season by acquiring former All-star first baseman Josh Naylor from the Arizona Diamondbacks.

The Arizona Diamondbacks are trading outfielder Randal Grichuk to the Kansas City Royals, per multiple reports.

The Arizona Diamondbacks have already made two moves before the July 31 deadline. General Manager Mike Hazen says he's going to do what's best for the long-term.

Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman and leading trade-deadline target Eugenio Suárez exited Monday night's eventual 5-1 loss to the Detroit Tigers after he was struck on the hand by a 95.6 mph pitch, but X-rays on his left index finger came back negative. He will get more testing Tuesday, he told reporters.
