Suarez is scheduled to start Sunday's game against the Rays at Tropicana Field.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, Suarez will wind up getting a second straight turn through the rotation after Grayson Rodriguez was diagnosed with a lat strain earlier this week and placed on the 15-day injured list. While the Orioles are optimistic about Rodriguez avoiding a long-term absence, Suarez should be in line for additional starts beyond Sunday. Before losing his spot in the rotation with the Orioles' July 30 acquisition of Trevor Rogers, Suarez had turned in a 6.40 ERA and 1.76 WHIP over his last seven starts, but he bounced back nicely in his return to a starting role Tuesday. Though he took a no-decision in the Orioles' 5-2 loss to the Blue Jays, Suarez struck out six and allowed just four baserunners over five scoreless frames.
