With the Arizona Diamondbacks now in Detroit prior to the start of a three-game set on Monday night, attention on the series is going to be diverted by the trade deadline.
The Diamondbacks are 51-55 in the Dodgers ruled National League West division and one of the most interesting sellers into the trade market. Third baseman Eugenio Suarez looks to be the top bat available in trade at Thursday’s 6:00 p.m. ET trade deadline, but the Diamondbacks have already traded outfielder Randal Grichuk to the Royals, and have several pitchers, starter Zac Gallen being the most notable, available in trade talks as well.
