The Marlins reinstated Weathers (finger) from the 60-day injured list ahead of his scheduled start Wednesday against the Dodgers in Miami.
Miami designated long reliever Jeff Lindgren for assignment to clear room for Weathers on the 40-man roster and 28-man active roster. The southpaw had delivered five consecutive quality starts plus an 11-strikeout outing before he was lifted from his last appearance June 7 due to a left index finger strain. Though Weathers' return from the IL took longer than expected, he'll likely be in store for two more starts with the Marlins to close out the season. Weathers should be stretched out enough to handle somewhere close to a typical starter's workload after he tossed 78 pitches over five scoreless innings last Friday in his final rehab start with Triple-A Jacksonville.
