  "account": "Cincinnati Reds place third baseman Eugenio Suarez on waivers, sparking excitement among Seattle Mariners supporters. The 35-year-old returned to the Reds following two earlier stints in Seattle, but their performance has been subpar this season. Signed to a $15m deal by the Reds, Suarez's $3m remaining value could pose a challenge for any interested team. Despite this, Mariners fans are urging team President Jerry Dipoto to re-sign the veteran. With a .208 batting average in 410 plate appearances this season, only one more home run than Cal Raleigh, some fans believe bringing Suarez back to T-Mobile Park could secure the M's AL West title. \"Do the right thing, bring him home,\" one fan tweeted, while another pleaded, \"I'm begging you.\" Even if Suarez clears waivers, he's unlikely to return to the Reds next season.",
  "summary": "The Cincinnati Reds have placed third baseman Eugenio Suarez on waivers, which has caught the attention of Seattle Mariners fans. Suarez rejoined the Reds following two stints in the Pacific Northwest at T-Mobile Park, which came to an end at the conclusion of last season.",
