Potential Eugenio Suarez to Mets Trade Receives Update on Thursday originally appeared on Athlon Sports. With the MLB Trade Deadline just a week away, there are plenty of teams around the league to keep an eye on as they aim for a push to finish the second half of the season strong.

Suarez, on the back of an All-Star selection, is one of the hottest names on the market. With an eye-catching 36 home runs, good for second place in the National League, and 87 RBI, a bountiful number of MLB contenders are fighting for his services.

Philadelphia's interest in the slugger appears to have come out of nowhere, with the rib injury to Alec Bohm causing Dombrowski and his front office to take a deeper look at trading for someone who would bring real pop to this lineup and lengthen the order.
