The Miami Marlins (49-86) continue to push toward a 100-loss season. Missing many key players due to injury has definitely not helped them this season. This is the latest injury news and updates for the Miami Marlins.
Day-to-Day
RHP Declan Cronin
Cronin (3-3, 4.65 ERA; left knee discomfort) left his Thursday outing with left knee discomfort. On Friday, Manager Skip Schumaker said that Cronin was feeling much better. With Cronin feeling better, he should be good to go for Saturday or Sunday.
10/15-Day Injured List
SS Xavier Edwards
Edwards (mild back extensor soreness) went on the IL on August 26th. He has traveled with the club to San Francisco and is slated to progress with activities as tolerated. Schumaker does not expect the injured list stint to last longer than 10 days. Edwards is expected to return during the September 3rd-September 8th homestand.
RHP Anthony Bender
Bender (4-2, 4.00 ERA) was scheduled to throw 25-30 pitches in a bullpen session on August 28th. He is expected to return within the next two weeks.
LHP Andrew Nardi
Nardi (3-2, 5.07 ERA; left elbow muscle injury) came to the ballpark on August 23rd saying his arm felt tight. The Marlins placed him on the injured list for him to rest and recoup but they do not expect him to miss more than the two weeks.
60-Day Injured List
LHP Josh Simpson
Simpson (left elbow ulnar neuritis) had back-to-back outings for the first time on his rehab stint on August 28th and 29th. He has now made eight rehab appearances. The Marlins expect to activate Simpson from the injured list within the next week.

Alcantara ( Tommy John surgery) threw a 35-pitch bullpen session on August 27th in Denver. He will not return this season.
LHP Braxton Garrett
Garrett (2-2, 5.35 ERA; left forearm flexor strain) was scheduled to throw a 35-pitch up-and-down session on August 27th for his third bullpen session. Barring any setbacks, Garrett is expected to return before the season's end.
