The Reds declined Suter's $3 million option for 2026 on Wednesday. Suter will receive a $250,000 buyout instead. The veteran southpaw collected a 4.52 ERA and 53:18 K:BB across 67.2 frames for the Reds in 2025. With the versatility to go multiple innings and start a game in a pinch, Suter shouldn't have trouble landing another contract this winter.

Manager Terry Francona said that Suter will serve as the Reds' opening pitcher in a bullpen game Saturday against the Cardinals, Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports. Suter is stepping into the rotation spot vacated by left-hander Wade Miley (forearm), who was placed on the 15-day injured list Friday. The 35-year-old Suter has previously opened two games for the Reds, but since he'll be taking the hill on one day's rest and has maxed out at 3.2 innings and 63 pitches over his 23 appearances on the season, he's unlikely to stay in the game for more than one turn through the batting order. The Reds are expected to call up right-hander Chase Petty from Triple-A Louisville prior to Saturday's game, and he could be tasked with covering multiple innings in relief once Suter exits the contest.

The Reds activated Suter from the bereavement list Friday. Suter missed the final two games of the Reds' series in Cleveland but is back for the start of their set in Detroit. The lefty holds a 2.27 ERA and 20:5 K:BB over 31.2 innings this season.

Suter will serve as the Reds' opening pitcher for Saturday's game against the Guardians, Charlie Goldsmith of the Dayton Daily News reports. Chase Petty will move into a bulk-relief role Saturday while Suter likely covers the first inning or two. The 35-year-old southpaw has been one of the most reliable arms on the Reds' pitching staff this season, logging a 2.08 ERA and 0.92 WHIP over 21.2 innings.
