May not return before end of April
Suarez (back) will throw a bullpen session Friday, and his next minor-league rehab start is scheduled for Tuesday with Triple-A Lehigh Valley, Jeff Kerr of CBS Philadelphia reports.
Analysis
Manager Rob Thomson noted that the left-hander has no issues with his back but could need another rehab appearance after Tuesday, which would likely push back Suarez's return to Philadelphia's rotation until early May. He threw 54 pitches Wednesday with Single-A Clearwater, so he'll likely be targeting the 70-pitch range in his next outing in the minors. The Phillies intend to bring Suarez back as a starter, but it sounds like Taijuan Walker is poised to get at least two more turns in the rotation in the interim.

Sharp in second rehab start
Suarez (back) allowed one run on three hits and one walk while striking out seven in four innings during his second minor-league rehab start Wednesday for Single-A Clearwater, Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Analysis
Suarez was sharp, tossing 39 of his 54 pitches for strikes. It's unclear how many more rehab appearances the left-hander will need during his recovery from back stiffness, but the Phillies would figure to want him to be stretched out further than the 50-pitch range. Suarez will likely make at least one more start in the minors before Philadelphia considers activating him from the injured list, but he's still on track to rejoin the rotation before the end of April.

Excels in first rehab start
Suarez (back) struck out four while giving up one hit and no walks over three innings in his first rehab start Thursday with Single-A Clearwater.
Analysis
Suarez's first competitive appearance since his March 9 Grapefruit League start against the Orioles went about as well as the Phillies could have hoped; he fired 24 of his 33 pitches for strikes and faced the minimum over three innings while not allowing a ball to leave the infield. He's expected to stick around with Clearwater for his next rehab start Tuesday and will be targeting around four innings and 55 pitches, per Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer. Suarez will most likely need at least one more rehab appearance after Tuesday before being deemed ready to return from the 15-day injured list.

Targeting 55 pitches in rehab start
Suarez (back) is expected to throw around four innings or 55 pitches in his next minor-league rehab start Tuesday with Low-A Clearwater, Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Analysis
Tuesday will mark the second appearance in the minors for Suarez, who completed three scoreless innings in Thursday's rehab start with High-A Clearwater. It's unclear how much time Suarez will spend on his assignment, but fantasy managers can expect the left-hander to return from back stiffness sometime before the end of April at this point. In Suarez's stead, Taijuan Walker has thrown 10.2 scoreless innings over two starts so far this season.
