"Right-hander Albert Suarez elected free agency yesterday after the Orioles passed him through waivers unclaimed, but he's predictably lined up to rejoin the team in short order. Suárez is already back in the Orioles' clubhouse, per Roch Kubatko of MASNsports.com, and the team is expected to finalize a new contract with him and option righty Cameron Weston to Triple-A Norfolk in a corresponding move."
"That suggests it'll be a big league deal for Suárez, who'd be available out of the 'pen for tonight's game."
