The Diamondbacks' powerful third baseman continues to smash the ball, but it's his consistent attitude and work ethic that make him a player worth rooting for.
As a towering shot to left center field cleared the bases in a 6-3 game, Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suárez began his trot. The D-backs had blown open another one, taking a 10-3 lead on the Rockies in the seventh inning.It's become almost routine to examine brilliant game after brilliant game from the veteran third baseman.
"After the hit a couple guys... I just was ready to make that pay off. He made that mistake right there with a slider, I was ready to put it in play," Suárez said. And work hard he did. Despite the major slump in the early months, and even working through some changes to his training regiment, the affable Suárez remained ever-positive, and perhaps even more importantly, consistent.
"But he has been so consistent, and we like that, we like consistency here, we like consistency in preparation, consistency in beliefs, and don't change your mindset. He has been a model of consistency, and I think that's why a lot of his teammates respect him too," the skipper continued.
"Big thing for me is just believe in myself, believe in what I can do, and trust in my eyes and my talent that God gives to me," said the third baseman, "he's the only one who really deserves all the glory and all the honor."
