Astros right-hander went unclaimed on outright waivers following his recent DFA and has been a signed to Houstons Triple-A affiliate, per the Astros transaction log at MLB.com. Hell have the right to reject that a signment in favor of free agency, both by virtue of his big league service time (more than three years) and by the fact that hes previously been outrighted in his career. The 32-year-old Suero appeared in just one game and Derrick Favors Jersey faced only one hitter with the Astros prior to his DFA. The veteran righty inked a minor league deal with Houston over the winter, was summoned to the big leagues to add a fresh arm to a beleaguered bullpen, and wound up surrendering a walkoff single to in his lone outing as an Astro. Its po sible hell stick around as a depth option. Suero had made five appearances with Triple-A Sugar Land before being called up. He to sed five innings of two-run ball, punching out five hitters without i suing a walk. Thats a solid start to building off what was a strong performance at the Triple-A level last season. Suero pitched 47 times for the Dodgers top affiliate in 2023, turning in a 3.26 ERA with an above-average 25.9% strikeout rate in the Pacific Coast League. That earned him a few scattered looks at Dodger Stadium, although the vast majority of his big league time has come with Washington. Suero pitched for the Nationals from 2018-21, including 78 appearances for the World Series team in 2019. Suero posted a sub-4.00 ERA in two of his first three seasons but stumbled to a 6.33 mark in 42 2/3 frames in 2021. That kicked off a nomadic phase of his career that has bounced him between the Angels, Dodgers and Astros systems. Justin Wright-Foreman Jersey
