Rockies manager Bud Black said Thursday that Marquez will not return from the 15-day injured list this season after being diagnosed with a stress reaction in his right elbow, Manny Randhawa of MLB.com reports.
Marquez made his way back from the IL shortly before the All-Star break after completing his recovery from May 2023 Tommy John surgery but lasted just one start before experiencing a setback with his surgically repaired elbow. The good news is that Marquez isn't dealing with any UCL damage, and the expectation is that he'll be ready to resume throwing in 6-to-8 weeks and have a normal offseason. Marquez is set to earn $10 million in 2025 in his final year under contract.
