Suarez (elbow) played catch on the field at Truist Park on Friday, Harrison Smajovits of SI.com reports. Suarez landed on the 15-day injured list nearly one month ago due to right elbow inflammation. He will need to complete mound work and throw to hitters before perhaps going out on a rehab assignment prior to his activation. A clearer picture regarding a return timeline for the setup man should become available as he continues his throwing progression.

Suarez (elbow) hasn't been cleared to resume throwing and won't be ready to rejoin the Atlanta bullpen immediately after the All-Star break, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports. The veteran setup man last pitched June 19 before being shut down due to inflammation in his right elbow. Suarez still has a chance to come off the IL before the end of July, but his recovery timeline will remain fuzzy until he's able to begin throwing again.

An MRI on Suarez's right elbow came back negative Friday, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports. Suarez landed on the injured list Friday due to inflammation in his elbow, but he doesn't seem to be dealing with a serious injury and is expected to return sometime shortly after the All-Star break. In the meantime, Dylan Lee and Tyler Kinley will be candidates for more setup work ahead of closer Raisel Iglesias.

Suarez gave up a hit and struck out two in 1.1 scoreless innings Tuesday to record his ninth hold of the season in a win over the Blue Jays. The veteran righty continues to excel as Atlanta's primary setup man for closer Raisel Iglesias. Suarez has been scored upon just once in his last 19 appearances, delivering a 0.46 ERA, 0.71 WHIP and 16:4 K:BB over 19.2 innings during that stretch while collecting two wins, four saves and seven holds.

Suarez earned the save Friday against the Phillies, allowing one hit and one walk with one strikeout in a scoreless ninth inning. Suarez put the tying run on base with a walk to Trea Turner and Adolis Garcia single but was able to get Brandon Marsh to ground out to end the game. With Raisel Iglesias (shoulder) on the injured list, Suarez has converted back-to-back saves this week and has big-time fantasy upside for however long Iglesias is sidelined. Suarez is a perfect 3-for-3 in save chances this season and owns a minuscule 0.77 ERA and 12:2 K:BB across 11.2 innings.
