Eduardo Escobar was traded late in the 2018 season, after debuting with the Chicago White Sox in 2011 and playing for the Minnesota Twins since 2012. 

Escobar had good years with Minnesota, but the versatile infielder’s best season was 2019, his first full year with the Diamondbacks.  He would post career-highs in Hits (171), Home Runs (35), and RBIs (118), and he led the NL in Triples (10).  After the 2020 COVID-19 season, Escobar did well in 2021 and was chosen for the All-Star Game, but was traded midway through the year to the Brewers, as he was slated to become a Free Agent after the season.

Escobar had 69 Home Runs with 358 Hits as a Diamondback.
