WEST SACRAMENTO, Calif. – The Diamondbacks made a series of roster moves ahead of their series opener against the Athletics, some of which were additions filling holes created by trade deadline departures. Joining the club were first baseman Tyler Locklear, infielder Connor Kaiser, left-hander Kyle Nelson and lefty Jalen Beeks.

The Seattle Mariners agreed to a trade for Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suarez. The two-time All-Star hit 36 home runs through 105 games in 2025.

The Diamondbacks have lost six in a row and nine of their past 10, falling to a season-worst eight games under .500 at 51-59. Right-hander Anthony DeSclafani struggled in his first start since taking over for right-hander Merrill Kelly in the rotation and gave up four runs in 2 1/3 innings.
