2025 Fantasy Outlook
Suarez latched on with the Orioles last offseason on a minor-league contract following a five-year stint in Japan and Korea. He wound up being a valuable Swiss Army Knife for Baltimore, making 24 starts while also pitching in long relief and a few times in short relief. Most of Suarez's good work came in the first half when he posted a 2.82 ERA, although he did collect a 1.97 ERA over six appearances (five starts) in August. Suarez didn't miss many bats in either role in finishing with just a 19.1 percent strikeout rate, and he had platoon issues as left-handed hitters managed an .825 OPS. The 35-year-old appears best suited for a swingman role, and that's probably what he'll settle into with the Orioles again in 2025. Read Past Outlooks
Relief role on tap
GM Mike Elias announced Sunday that Suarez will begin the season working out of the bullpen, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.
ANALYSIS
Cade Povich won the battle to be Baltimore's No. 5 starter, so Suarez will open the campaign in relief. The right-hander should again work as a swingman in 2025 but may have a difficult time replicating the 24 regular-season starts he made last season. Suarez made eight relief appearances in addition to those starts and finished the regular season with a 3.70 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 108:43 K:BB across 133.2 innings.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2018
2017
Suarez is back in the big leagues for the first time since he made 18 relief appearances for the Giants in 2017. The Orioles signed him to a minor-league contract this past offseason after he pitched in the KBO from 2022 through 2023. Suarez was a groundball machine in Korea, generating grounders over 60 percent of the time. In three Triple-A appearances, Suarez struck out 17 batters and walked one in 15.1 innings. He continued to be stingy with free passes in his first start for the big club, striking out four with zero walks in 5.2 frames. Suarez sat at 96 mph with his fastball, which he threw over 62 percent of the time, while his upper-80s cutter was his go-to secondary pitch. The Orioles have established starters like Kyle Bradish and John Means who are working back from injury and Cade Povich is having significant success at Triple-A, but for the time being, Suarez appears to have earned a spot at the back of the rotation.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
No. 5 starter sans Rodriguez?
With Grayson Rodriguez set to miss the start of the regular season due to a triceps injury, Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said Friday that Suarez and Cade Povich will compete for the No. 5 spot in the rotation, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.
ANALYSIS
Suarez appeared to be on the outside looking in for a rotational spot, and even if he were to make the Opening Day roster it would have likely been in a bullpen role. However, Rodriguez's injury opens the door for Suarez to earn a spot in the Orioles' rotation to start the regular season. Suarez made 24 starts and appeared in 32 games for Baltimore last season and posted a 9-7 record with a 3.70 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 108:43 K:BB across 133.2 regular-season innings.
