Scouting Report

Updated May 19, 2026

José Suarez, a 28-year-old left-handed pitcher, was designated for assignment by the Seattle Mariners on May 13, 2026. This marks the fourth time in 2026 that Suarez has been designated for assignment (twice by Atlanta, once by Baltimore, and once by Seattle). Suarez was claimed off waivers from the Braves on May 3 but made only one appearance for Seattle, allowing one run on two hits and two walks over two innings. Between Atlanta and Seattle this season, Suarez carries a 6.38 ERA through 18.1 innings with a 2.07 WHIP. He is out of minor league options and playing on a $900K arbitration salary. The Mariners needed to make roster space to activate Bryce Miller from the 15-day IL.
