Suarez will start at third base and bat sixth Wednesday against the Pirates.
Suarez was moved into a short-side platoon role in mid-August, but the 30-year-old seems to have wrested primary duties at third base back from Mike Moustakas, who has struggled mightily at the dish since returning from the injured list. The lefty-hitting Moustakas will be on the bench for the fourth game in a row, with the last two benchings coming against right-handed starting pitchers. Meanwhile, after churning out consecutive two-hit games to begin the week, the righty-hitting Suarez looks like he'll see regular work against both righties and lefties for the foreseeable future.
