**Boston, MA** – With Rafael Devers no longer on the roster, the Boston Red Sox are reportedly looking to bolster their lineup with power, and Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suárez has emerged as a potential target. According to a report by R.J. Anderson of CBS Sports, Suárez could be a good fit for the Red Sox, especially considering his impressive offensive performance this season.

Suárez, 33, is currently on pace for a career-high OPS+ and boasts 25 home runs and 68 RBIs as of Monday. His .2.6 bWAR demonstrates his overall value to the Diamondbacks. Anderson highlights Suárez’s power and strategic approach at the plate, noting that more than half of his batted balls have exceeded 95 mph and he consistently focuses on lifting and pulling the ball, resulting in a ground-ball percentage under 30%.

With the All-Star break approaching, Suárez is considered one of the most desirable “rental bats” on the market if the Diamondbacks decide to sell. The Red Sox, along with the Reds and Angels, are mentioned as potential landing spots.

Acquiring Suárez could provide the Red Sox with a much-needed power surge, especially if Alex Bregman’s injury situation remains uncertain. Suárez could also fill the designated hitter role currently held by Masataka Yoshida.
