One start into his return from Tommy John surgery, Colorado Rockies right-hander German Marquez was put on the 15-day injured list on Monday with right elbow inflammation.
The move is retroactive to Friday. In a corresponding move, the Rockies recalled right-hander Noah Davis from Triple-A Albuquerque.
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. The veteran righty also ranks among Colorado’s all-time top five in wins, ERA and innings.
Davis, 27, has a 9.00 ERA in one three-inning relief outing for the Rockies this season. In 10 career games (six starts) for Colorado, Davis is 0-4 with a 9.00 ERA in 34 innings.
