In case there was any doubt over Eugenio Suárez being the top rental bat available at the MLB trade deadline, the All-Star third baseman hit four home runs over the course of the Arizona Diamondbacks' three-game sweep of the St. Louis Cardinals this past weekend.

Previewing the Cubs' deadline plans, Sahadev Sharma and Patrick Mooney of The Athletic confirm that Suárez is near the top of the Cubs' radar ahead of the deadline.
