Eugenio Suarez is going to make one MLB club very happy in 2026.

With less than a month before the start of spring training in Florida and Arizona, there are still several MLB clubs in need of a serviceable, everyday third baseman. Count the Minnesota Twins, Texas Rangers, Detroit Tigers, and Pittsburgh Pirates among the needy. A power bat at the “hot corner” is more than a luxury for a club to fare well during the regular season. A slugging third baseman is a necessity to go deep into the postseason.
