Colorado Rockies right-hander German Marquez will miss the remainder of the season after being diagnosed with a stress reaction in his right elbow, manager Bud Black said Thursday.
Black said that the injury was not due to the rebuilt ulnar collateral ligament in Marquez’s elbow. The skipper said Marquez is expected to recover in approximately six to eight weeks.
Marquez’s return following Tommy John surgery lasted all of just one start before he was placed on the 15-day injured list on July 22.
Marquez, 29, faced the New York Mets on July 14 in his first start since April 26, 2023, 16 days before he underwent surgery. In four innings, Marquez allowed three runs on five hits while walking four and striking out three on 70 pitches.
In that game, Marquez passed Jorge De La Rosa for the franchise lead in strikeouts with 986.
An All-Star in 2021, Marquez owns a 65-56 record with a 4.42 ERA in 177 appearances (174 starts) with the Rockies.
