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.

When a player is absent from a starting lineup with the trade deadline looming, the assumption by fans is that the player is about to be on the move. That latter part may be true for the Arizona Diamondbacks' Eugenio Suarez, but that's not why he's out of the lineup on Tuesday night in Detroit.
