July is coming to an end, which in major league baseball translates into a time of player changes. At the time of this publication, there have not yet been any moves that have made headlines, that is, involving players of greater value. There are teams that are contenders and that will definitely be moving their pieces. Traditionally, the New York Yankees are a team that acts as a buyer, because they are usually in the thick of the fight most seasons. There is talk that this team is looking for starting pitchers and to strengthen their offence, which, despite having big names on their roster, has not been able to produce at the level expected. Without a doubt, they need a third baseman who can contribute both defensively and offensively. One of the names that has been mentioned most often is that of Venezuelan Eugenio Suárez, who has wonderful numbers and will also become a free agent at the end of this season. So, it seems to me that this is the right time for Arizona to get at least a couple of prospects and start building a competitive team for future seasons.

Suárez is one of the most sought-after players in this off-season, with teams such as the Milwaukee Brewers, Cincinnati Reds, Chicago Cubs, Detroit Tigers, and Seattle Mariners joining the fray. When I say he is sought-after, I am not exaggerating. Honestly, Arizona has a golden opportunity to strengthen itself for the upcoming seasons. More than one team will be willing to give up some of their best prospects in order to get one of the best offensive players of this season. Suárez's offensive projections are those of a most valuable player. He would have more than 50 home runs and would far exceed 130 runs batted in. The Diamondbacks' dilemma would be which area they need to strengthen when acquiring young prospects from the aforementioned teams. I like the Cubs and Brewers' farm systems. The latter team has Jefferson Quero, a catcher with good defence and an offence that speaks for itself. It would be tempting to have him and a couple of pitchers, as this would bring results in the very short term for the Arizona desert team.
Hay 5 equipos que me gustan por el material que pueden proporcionarle a los demás conjuntos, ellos son: los Miami Marlins, Devil Rays de Tampa, Orioles de Baltimore, Piratas de Pittsburgh y los antes mencionados Cascabeles de Arizona, en estos 5 equipos se puede conseguir pitcheo, tanto abridor como de relevo, algo que pudiera marcar la diferencia entre clasificar y no, esto apenas inicia, y en los próximos días les estaré haciendo un análisis sobre los cambios que se den y el impacto que pueda causar o no en los equipos involucrados.

The Chicago Cubs have a great opportunity to make a big comeback in the playoffs, but the Brewers are spoiling the party, which is why I believe this will be one of the teams that will be most active between now and the trade deadline. Pitching and a couple of batters would be Chicago's priority, although there aren't many starting pitchers available, there are teams that could provide them with a couple of arms. The Miami Marlins have good material to offer.
There are five teams that I like because of the talent they can provide to other teams: the Miami Marlins, Tampa Devil Rays, Baltimore Orioles, Pittsburgh Pirates, and the aforementioned Arizona Diamondbacks. These five teams can provide pitching, both starting and relief, which could make the difference between qualifying and not qualifying. This is just the beginning, and in the coming days I will be analysing the changes that take place and the impact they may or may not have on the teams involved.
