Comparing Geno Suárez’s First Half to Williamson’s Rookie Season
Seattle acquired Eugenio Suárez at the 2025 MLB trade deadline for three minor league prospects, first baseman Tyler Locklear and right-handers Juan Burgos and Hunter Cranton. This visualization compares Suárez’s first half production with the man he is replacing at the hot corner, rookie Ben Williamson.
To provide a balanced snapshot of each player’s performance, this page uses wRC+, BsR, DRS, and Baseball Savant percentile rankings. Together these metrics cover offensive value, baserunning, defense, and underlying skill indicators—giving a concise view of each player’s strengths and weaknesses.
Ranks shown #1–#15 (red = top 5, blue = bottom 5). Footnotes indicate league context.
Takeaway: While both are starting-caliber third basemen, their profiles are almost polar opposites — Williamson grades out as one of the best fielders in the league, whereas Suárez ranks among the league’s best hitters. (Or, put simply: Williamson wins with the glove; Suárez wins with the bat.)
*Trade note:* Suárez joined Seattle at the 2025 trade deadline.
*Methodology:* 2025 season stats through the trade window. League ranks reflect the player’s primary league at the time of measurement (AL for Williamson, NL for Suárez before the trade).
