As the MLB trade deadline approaches, the Arizona Diamondbacks could have interest in two of their veteran starting pitchers.

PHOENIX — Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte has emerged in trade rumors, raising eyebrows as the team faces questions about their identity and future.

The New York Yankees made their first big addition on Friday afternoon. Now, they can turn all their attention toward adding a talented starting pitcher.

Torey Lovullo gathered his team in the food room off the visiting clubhouse at PNC Park on Friday afternoon. It was time for the daily hitters' meeting to go over the opposing team’s pitching staff, but there was another purpose on this day.

With the Diamondbacks scouting AA Binghamton, these three Mets prospects could be on their radar as trade deadline talks heat up.

Count the Cincinnati Reds among the teams to talk with the Arizona Diamondbacks about third baseman Eugenio Suárez, arguably the most sought-after bat on the trade market. Suárez, of course, spent seven seasons with the Reds, meaning that this would be a reunion.

The Diamondbacks have shown they would also not like to put Gallen in the discussion. Arizona has been reluctant to make any trades, as the team has hoped it would still remain viable for a playoff berth before the end of July. It looks more unlikely that Arizona will have a chance this season to play in the postseason.

With the July 31 trade deadline looming and the Diamondbacks deliberating, the Yankees have been repeatedly linked to Arizona’s Eugenio Suárez.
