Suzuki will start behind the plate and bat fifth Thursday against the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

Suzuki will start for the second time in the last three games. He briefly battled a leg injury last week, but appears to be back to full health. Max Stassi will be on the bench as a result.

Suzuki (leg) is starting behind the plate and batting seventh Tuesday against the A's.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran catcher has been battling leg soreness since being hit by a pitch on the back of the left leg Friday, but he'll rejoin the lineup for Tuesday's matchup. Suzuki should continue to see occasional starts to spell starting backstop Max Stassi.

Suzuki is considered day-to-day after being hit by a pitch on the back of his left leg Friday, MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Suzuki was replaced by a pinch runner after the hit-by-pitch occurred in the 10th inning of Friday's win, and he gave way behind the plate to Max Stassi on Saturday. Stassi is starting again Sunday, but he is considered the Angels' primary catcher, so his presence in the lineup on back-to-back days may have no connection to Suzuki's leg issue. The Angels have not called up a catcher to provide insurance behind the plate, so Suzuki figures to be well enough to play if needed.

Suzuki went 3-for-3 with a solo home run and an additional RBI as Los Angeles beat Arizona 6-5 Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Suzuki opened the scoring with a solo blast to left in third, singled in the fourth and sixth and was hit by a pitch in both the eighth and 10th innings in what was easily his best game of the season. Though he's the number two catcher behind Max Stassi, games like this are likely to earn the veteran more playing time moving forward.

Suzuki will start at catcher in Sunday's game against the Mariners, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Though he's in the lineup for the series finale, Suzuki has moved into a clear No. 2 role at catcher for the Angels following Max Stassi's return from the 7-day injured list Tuesday. Stassi will be on the bench Sunday after starting three of the past four games behind the dish.

Suzuki is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Giants, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Suzuki and Anthony Bemboom have now alternated starts behind the plate over the past four games, and the two will likely continue to split work at catcher until Max Stassi (concussion) is reinstated from the injured list. Over 96 plate appearances on the season, Suzuki has slashed .202/.277/.274 with a career-worst 18.8 percent strikeout rate.

Suzuki isn't starting Saturday's game against the Athletics.

EDGE Analysis

Suzuki had lost out on work to Drew Butera recently, but Suzuki will remain on the bench even after Butera was designated for assignment Saturday. Anthony Bemboom will start behind the dish and bat eighth.

Suzuki is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

Even though No. 1 catcher Max Stassi (concussion) remains on the 7-day injured list, Suzuki doesn't appear to be the Angels' top option behind the dish. He'll be on the bench for the fourth time in six games as Drew Butera gets another start at catcher.

Suzuki isn't in the lineup for Monday's game against the Astros, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis
