The Miami Marlins announced that right-hander Max Meyer will not throw for two weeks due to a neck strain, impacting his availability and potentially sidelining him for most of August. Meyer has shown promise this season with a 2.68 ERA and a strong strikeout rate, but has faced multiple injuries since being drafted third overall in 2020. With Meyer out, the Marlins’ pitching depth is further strained, relying on Sandy Alcantara and others to fill the gap. The team opted not to call up Braxton Garrett after his poor Triple-A start, leaving limited options on the 40-man roster.
