HUGE Cincinnati Reds News: Eugenio Suarez Signing With Reds, Cincinnati Bengals Trade Rumors

Описание: The Cincinnati Reds have officially brought back veteran slugger Eugenio Suárez on a one-year, $15 million contract for the 2026 season, reuniting the power hitter with the franchise where he enjoyed some of his best years. The deal, which includes a mutual option for 2027, was confirmed by multiple reports and is pending a physical.

Suárez, 34, spent seven seasons with the Reds from 2015 through 2021, belting 189 home runs during that span and becoming one of the most feared right-handed bats in the lineup. His best campaign in Cincinnati came in 2019 when he hit 49 homers—a total that he matched in 2025 while splitting time between the Arizona Diamondbacks and Seattle Mariners. In that 2025 season, he finished fifth in MLB in homers and fourth in RBIs with 118, cementing his status as one of the top power threats on the free-agent market.

The return to Cincinnati offers the Reds a much-needed offensive boost. After finishing the 2025 season with modest overall team production, Cincinnati has clearly targeted Suárez’s raw power to anchor its middle of the lineup. With Gold Glove third baseman Ke’Bryan Hayes entrenched on the hot corner and top prospect Sal Stewart likely at first base, Suárez is expected to serve primarily as the designated hitter, while also providing occasional infield help.

The one-year structure reflects both Suárez’s age and the evolving roster strategy in Cincinnati: it gives the Reds flexibility while still adding a proven bat in a power-friendly home ballpark. Fans of the club have been enthusiastic about his return to Great American Ball Park, where his long balls often fueled excitement and momentum.
