The New York Yankees opted out of a potential Eugenio Suárez blockbuster deal and the Arizona Diamondbacks eventually traded him to the Seattle Mariners.

"Trade talks between the Yankees and Diamondbacks over Eugenio Suárez stalled after Arizona asked for a MLB player, an upper-level prospect (AA/AAA), and at least one lower-level prospect, per industry sources," Romero wrote in a post on X/Twitter.

The New York Yankees were presumed as the favorites to trade for third baseman Eugenio Suarez. But the Yanks went a different direction at the hot corner on Friday, landing Ryan McMahon from the Colorado Rockies.
