Arizona Diamondbacks slugger Eugenio Suarez avoids major injury after HBP, boosting his trade deadline value with clean test results.

DETROIT — After taking a fastball from Detroit Tigers pitcher Will Vest off his left hand on Monday, Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suárez appears to avoided serious injury. Suárez told reporters on Tuesday that a CT scan and MRI on his hand came back negative with no breaks.

Third baseman Eugenio Suarez is in his second season with the Arizona Diamondbacks after making his big-league debut in 2014. The 33-year-old right-handed power bat established himself as an offensive threat during his seven-year tenure with the Cincinnati Reds, where he made his first All-Star team in 2018 and smashed 189 home runs in 916 games.
