5 years agoCincinnati Reds third baseman Eugenio Suarez (shoulder) is making progress in his rehab from offseason shoulder surgery. Suarez began some light throwing on Thursday and was able to swing the bat with both arms for the first time on Friday. Suarez told reporters, "My arm, my shoulder feels OK, feeling better. I just want to get my comfort back. [On Friday,] I went 75 feet. It’s getting better every day. That’s the goal.” Suarez was not initially expected to be ready for Opening Day but his progress has the club optimistic that he may be ready in time. Fantasy owners will still want to have a backup plan in place at third base in case Suarez does end up having to open the season on the injured list.--Matt T - RotoBaller
