Suarez Begins Throwing Program After Month-Plus Absence
The Padres closer has been out since late June and is just starting to play catch, with a return timeline still uncertain but possible before season's end.
Robert Suarez is set to resume throwing the day after this report, marking his first activity since being sidelined in late June. He will need a gradual buildup before progressing to bullpen sessions off a mound and eventually facing live hitters. His return this season remains a hope rather than a certainty. The immediate goal is simply to play catch pain-free, underscoring how early he is in the recovery process.
