Rockies' Germán Márquez to have Tommy John surgery.

Colorado Rockies pitcher Germán Márquez will undergo Tommy John surgery, which will keep him out of action for the rest of the season and at least the first half of 2024. Márquez has been the club's best pitcher in recent years and losing him is a significant blow to the struggling team. The Rockies are also deprived of their best summer trade candidate. Márquez signed a $43 million contract extension with the Rockies in 2019, which runs through 2023, but the team may take the $2.5 million buyout instead of the $16 million option next year, sending him to the open market.

Rockies' German Marquez to have Tommy John surgery.

Colorado Rockies' opening-day starter, German Marquez, will undergo Tommy John surgery, ending his 2023 season. Recovery time from the surgery typically takes 12-18 months, and Marquez is in the final year of his five-year, $43 million contract. The Rockies' starting rotation already lacked quality depth, so losing Marquez for the rest of the season is a big hit. Two new starters will join the rotation this week, with right-hander Connor Seabold scheduled to pitch Thursday afternoon's game against Milwaukee at Coors Field, and right-hander Antonio Senzatela slated to start Friday against the Mets in New York.

Rockies' Germán Márquez Suffers Triceps Injury in First Start Off IL

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Germán Márquez, who just returned from the injured list, left today's game with triceps pain and will undergo an MRI in Denver tomorrow. The initial testing didn't show significant damage, but it's possible the injury has been re-aggravated or was more serious than previously thought. Márquez has been the Rockies' best starting pitcher for the past few years, and if he needs to miss more time, it would be a blow to the team. The Rockies have struggled with their rotations in recent years and have limited options to replace Márquez if he needs to miss significant time.
