Suárez heads to the open market after passing through waivers unclaimed earlier this week. The 28-year-old lefty compiled a lackluster 5.87 ERA across 61 1/3 innings for the Athletics after being acquired from the Mariners back in mid-May.

Suarez was just activated off the injured list on August 28th, but he allowed six runs on nine hits in 2 2/3 innings since returning, so the Athletics are moving on. He could return on a minor league deal or find another minor league opportunity elsewhere.

Suarez, who had been out since Aug. 12 with a strained hip, figures to pitch in middle relief. He has a 5.22 ERA over 58 2/3 innings in two starts and 40 relief appearances for three teams this year.

Suarez will be out of action for at least the next two weeks while he recovers. The 28-year-old will be replaced by Drew Rom, with Rom claimed off waivers prior to Tuesday’s game.

The 28-year-old southpaw rejoins his team after missing the first half of the week while he welcomed a new addition to the family. He returns to a 4.01 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and a 24/6 K/BB ratio over 24 2/3 innings with the A’s this season. Matt Krook was designated for assignment in a corresponding move on Thursday.

Suarez will be away from the club for the next couple days on paternity leave. The 28-year-old lefty has pitched well with a 4.01 ERA across 24 2/3 innings for the Athletics since being acquired from the Mariners back on May 14.

That’s a third team in two weeks for Suarez, whom the Mariners claimed off waivers from the Braves on May 4. The left-hander has allowed a 6.38 ERA in 18.1 innings at the big league level this year and will likely claim a low-leverage role in the Athletics bullpen for the time being.

The Mariners needed space on the active roster for Bryce Miller (oblique) to be activated off the injured list, so Suarez was let go. The left-hander was claimed off waivers from the Braves on May 4th and made just one appearance for the Mariners, allowing one run on two hits in two innings. He has a 6.38 ERA in 18 1/3 innings in total this season.

Suárez will join Seattle’s active roster for Monday’s game against the Braves, ironically, after being removed from Atlanta’s relief mix last Friday. The 28-year-old southpaw holds a bloated 6.61 ERA across 16 1/3 innings this season.

After posting good results in a small sample last season, Suarez has a 6.61 ERA in 16 1/3 innings this year. He could rejoin the Braves on a minor league deal if/when he clears waivers.

The 28-year-old left-hander piled up six strikeouts on the night while issuing a pair of free passes. The lone tally against him came as Jared Triolo smacked a one-out triple in the second inning and scored on a sacrifice fly. Aside from that, Suárez was in complete command. He’s making a strong case for inclusion in the team’s Opening Day rotation, posting a 3.38 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and a 14/8 K/BB ratio over 16 innings in Grapefruit League competition.

The lone run came on catcher Tyler Tolve’s homer in the ninth. Suárez was facing five regulars today, and of that group, only Bryson Stott managed a hit against him. He has a 4.22 ERA in 10 2/3 innings as he tries to make the Braves as a fifth starter or as a middle reliever. That he’s out of options increases the chances that he’ll have a spot.

Riley Tirotta and Brandon Valenzuela homered off him. Suárez, who is out of options, is in the running to make the Braves as their fifth starter or as a middle reliever, but this won’t help. He gave up hard-hit balls to nine of the 15 batters he faced and two of the other six walked.

Atlanta tried to sneak Suarez through waivers earlier in January after avoiding arbitration, but the Orioles snapped him up. The Orioles then waived him last week, and Suarez is right back in Atlanta. The left-hander had a 1.86 ERA, 1.29 WHIP, and 16/10 K/BB ratio in 19 1/3 innings last season.

The Orioles just claimed the 28-year-old southpaw off of waivers from the Braves last week, but the allure of claiming Weston Wilson off of waivers was too much to pass up, so Suarez lost his spot on the 40-man roster once again. Given the overall lack of quality bullpen depth around the league, he could once again attract interest on waivers.

The Braves tried to push Suarez through waivers after avoiding arbitration with him last week by signing him to a $900,000 deal. The 28-year-old Suarez had a 1.86 ERA in one start and six relief appearances after the Braves picked him up from the Angels last season. He previously posted a 5.47 ERA in 61 starts and 38 relief appearances for the Halos from 2019-24. He’s out of options, so unless he makes the Orioles out of spring training, he’ll go back on waivers again at the end of March. More likely, though, is that the Orioles just put him right back on waivers in the coming days.

The financial terms of the deal are not yet available. Suarez did a nice job in limited work with Atlanta after coming over from Los Angeles, and should compete for one of the final spots in the rotation this spring.

It’s extremely rare to see a save credited in a contest where one side led by nearly a touchdown for most of it, but Suarez will get the second one of his career after scattering five hits over three shutout frames. The 27-year-old lefty has looked rejuvenated with a change of scenery, posting a strong 1.96 ERA across 18 1/3 innings over six appearances for Atlanta since coming over from the Angels back in March.

Suarez had struck out eight on three occasions with the Angels, most recently in 2022. He was just added to the Atlanta roster to start in the doubleheader today, and it’s unclear whether he’ll get the chance to stick around. He made a nice case for it, though, and he’ll have to go on waivers if the Braves do try to demote him.

The 27-year-old has a 2.45 ERA and 5/7 K/BB ratio in 7 1/3 innings for Atlanta so far this season. He will get the start on Tuesday against the Nationals in what should be a bullpen game. He shouldn’t be considered for fantasy purposes.
