Returns from IL
Simpson (shoulder) struck out two and allowed no hits and one walk over one inning in his lone appearance since being reinstated from Triple-A Jacksonville's 7-day injured list Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Simpson was on the IL for nearly three months due to a left shoulder injury. The 25-year-old reliever has yet to make his MLB debut, but he occupies a spot on the Marlins' 40-man roster and could be in the mix for a late-season call-up.

Rehabbing in Jupiter
Simpson (shoulder) began a rehab assignment July 9 at Single-A Jupiter and retired two hitters while allowing three earned runs on two hits and one walk. He struck out one batter.
ANALYSIS
Simpson was placed on Triple-A Jacksonville's 7-day injured list May 9 with a left shoulder impingement, but now that he's rehabbing in the lower levels in the minors, it likely won't be long before he's activated. In 11 innings with the Triple-A club this season, Simpson has posted a 6.55 ERA and 1.91 WHIP while striking out 16 hitters.

Out with shoulder impingement

A 25-year-old lefty reliever, Simpson logged a 6.55 ERA and 1.91 WHIP in 11 innings across eight appearances before landing on the injured list in early-May. He is rehabbing the injury at the team's spring training complex in Florida.

Dispatched to Triple-A
The Marlins optioned Simpson to Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Miami protected Simpson from the Rule 5 Draft over the winter by adding him to the 40-man roster, but with only 12.1 career innings above the Double-A level under his belt, the 26-year-old southpaw was never considered especially likely to win a spot in the Marlins' Opening Day bullpen. Between stops with Jacksonville and Double-A Pensacola in 2022, Simpson logged a 3.97 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 112:34 K:BB in 68 innings.
