Suarez will serve as the opening pitcher during Thursday's game against the Tigers, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Suarez has posted a 3.67 ERA and 1.30 WHIP across 27 innings since joining the A's in mid-May, and he's now in line for his first opening assignment with the team. The 28-year-old lefty has pitched up to 3.2 frames in a game this season, but he will likely be limited to an inning or two before handing the game over to bulk reliever Jack Perkins.

The Athletics activated Suarez from the paternity leave list Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Suarez was away from the club for a few days while welcoming a new addition to the family. Matt Krook was designated for assignment in a corresponding roster move.

The Athletics placed Suarez on the paternity leave list Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Suarez will likely miss the entirety of the series against the Dodgers before rejoining the Athletics bullpen for the weekend series versus the Marlins. The lefty has logged a 4.01 ERA and 24:6 K:BB over 24.2 innings for the Athletics this season.

Suarez allowed a hit and a walk while striking out four over 2.2 scoreless innings in Saturday's 2-0 loss to the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
With starter J.T. Ginn struggling to find the zone, Suarez entered in the third inning and allowed an inherited baserunner to score, but he was able to settle in and keep the Padres from extending their lead for the remainder of his outing. The southpaw's four strikeouts marked his highest total through four appearances with the Athletics and his second-highest mark of the campaign. Across 13 outings between Atlanta, Seattle and the Athletics, Suarez owns a 6.17 ERA, 1.97 WHIP and 30:16 K:BB in 23.1 innings.

The Athletics acquired Suarez from the Mariners on Thursday in exchange for cash considerations.
EDGE Analysis
Suarez had been designated for assignment by Seattle and will remain in the division after being shipped to the A's. The left-hander does not have minor-league options remaining, so he will join the bullpen as a long reliever.

The Mariners designated Suarez for assignment Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Suarez has now been dropped from a 40-man roster for a fourth time in 2026, with Atlanta (twice) and the Orioles having also designated him for assignment. Despite posting a bloated 6.38 ERA and 2.07 WHIP over 18.1 innings between Atlanta and Seattle this season, Suarez has excelled at making bats miss (career-best 26.7 K%). He could maintain some appeal for teams looking to bolster their swingman depth.

Seattle claimed Suarez off waivers from Atlanta on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Suarez has no minor-league options remaining and will be added to the 26-man active roster once he links up with Seattle. The 28-year-old lefty is expected to serve as a multi-inning option out of the Seattle bullpen after logging a 6.61 ERA, 2.08 WHIP and 21:12 K:BB across 16.1 frames over eight appearances (one start) with Atlanta this season.

Atlanta designated Suarez for assignment Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Suarez has struck out 21 batters over 16.1 innings in a long relief role, but he's also walked 12 while putting up a 6.61 ERA and 2.08 WHIP. The left-hander will likely clear waivers, and he would have the ability to elect free agency at that point.

Suarez gave up two hits and a walk over three scoreless innings Friday to record his first save of the season in a win over the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
Atlanta waltzed to a 9-0 victory, and Suarez finished out the shutout after Martin Perez had tossed six innings. Suarez has filled a swingman role to begin the season, posting a 6.35 ERA, 1.94 WHIP and 12:5 K:BB in 11.1 innings over five appearances (one start), but he could lose his spot on the 26-man roster once Spencer Strider (oblique) is ready for his 2026 debut.

Suarez has made his last two appearances out of the Atlanta bullpen, yielding three earned runs on six hits and one walk while striking out four batters across 2.2 innings.
EDGE Analysis
After the Atlanta rotation was hit hard by injuries in spring training, Suarez was called upon to start the club's fifth game of the season back on March 31. However, after getting roughed up for four earned runs in 3.2 innings in a loss to the Athletics, Suarez ended up moved to the bullpen while Atlanta turned to Martin Perez as its new fifth starter. Though Perez has since been designated for assignment, Suarez may not be next in line to fill the open rotation spot. Instead, Atlanta may be inclined to turn to either Didier Fuentes or JR Ritchie -- both of whom have gotten off to excellent starts at Triple-A Gwinnett -- to step into the fifth starter's role.
