Slims down for spring Suarez said Wednesday that he reported to spring training about 15 pounds lighter than he was at the conclusion of the 2020 season, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.
Impact Suarez said he put a greater emphasis on his diet during the offseason after he indicated he felt slower and was dissatisfied with his footwork in 2020. The weight loss shouldn't have any major implications on Suarez's outlook heading into 2021, as the 29-year-old has never been a major contributor in the run game, even in his younger days. More than anything, Suarez's improved health this spring should put him in position for a bounce-back campaign. After missing most of last spring while recovering from right shoulder surgery, Suarez was cleared for summer camp, but he finished with a disappointing .202/.312/.470 slash line in 57 games.

Lifts three-run homer Suarez went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in Wednesday's 6-1 win over the Brewers.
Impact His 15th of the year blew the game open for Cincinnati and helped put the club back over .500. The new rules in MLB helped in this case, as Suarez got the best of a lefty reliever (Alex Claudio) he probably wouldn't have had the opportunity to face in past seasons. Suarez is now up to .205/.318/.486 with 15 homers, 36 RBI, 29 runs scored and two stolen bases.

Three-homer night against Bucs Suarez went 3-for-4 with three home runs and five RBI in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Pirates.
Impact The only Cincinnati run Suarez didn't account for was the team's first one, as Tucker Barnhart led off the third inning with a solo shot before Suarez began his fireworks display. The three blasts were a new career high in a single game for the 29-year-old, while the five RBI tied his personal best. His early-season slump is a distant memory -- nine of his 12 homers on the year have come in the last 15 games, a stretch during which Suarez is slashing .314/.368/.902 with 20 RBI.
