Eugenio Su\u00e1rez remains unsigned after a 49-homer season.<\/p>\n<p>Su\u00e1rez could slot in at third base to replace Bregman, allowing Marcelo Mayer to play second base. MassLive\u2019s Chris Cotillo predicted that the Red Sox would end up signing Su\u00e1rez before opening day.<\/p>\n<p>Su\u00e1rez earned his second career All-Star selection last season. He was the most coveted player at the trade deadline last year and was dealt from the Arizona Diamondbacks to the Seattle Mariners.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s47719.pcdn.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/06\/Marcelo-Mayer-2-e1751051414167-480x270.jpg\" alt=\"Red Sox Predicted To Sign Veteran Slugger Coming Off Monster Season\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The Mariners went all the way to the American League Championship Series, but Su\u00e1rez did not hit well for them. He hit just .189 with a .682 OPS in 53 regular-season games for the Mariners.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Story continues below advertisement<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>He did hit three postseason home runs, but overall, he played much better in Arizona. He had 36 home runs in 106 games for the Diamondbacks last season. He finished the year with a .228\/.298\/.526 slash line.<\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<p>His numbers took a hit when he got to the pitcher-friendly T-Mobile Park, but he is still a great power hitter. He has 79 home runs in the last two seasons. The 34-year-old slugger is going into his 13th season and could sign on a shorter deal. Perhaps a one or two-year commitment from the Red Sox gets the job done.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nesn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2023\/07\/Pete-Alonso-1.jpg\" alt=\"Red Sox Predicted To Sign Superstar Slugger As Free Agency Heats Up\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<p><\/main><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eugenio Su\u00e1rez could be a great addition to the Red Sox Aaliyan Mohammed 21 Hours Ago2 Min Read The Boston Red Sox lost Alex Bregman to the&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":146952,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-146951","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mlb"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 -
