ST. LOUIS - Eugenio Suarez is throwing and hitting. That’s a sliver of good news in the doom-and-gloom world of the Reds.

Suarez has been on the disabled list with a fractured thumb since April 9.

“I’m so happy, really happy,” Suarez said. “It feels great. We’ll see what happens (Monday).”

Right now, Suarez is just hitting off the tee and soft toss, but Monday is two weeks from the injury, which can be a six-week injury.
