German Marquez Injury: Set for pair of rehab starts

Marquez (biceps) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday and is expected to make two starts with the affiliate before returning from the 15-day injured list, Patrick Lyons of JustBaseball.com reports.

Assuming Tuesday's outing goes well, Marquez is lined up to pitch again for Albuquerque on Sunday before returning from the 15-day injured list next week. Before landing on the IL on July 23 due to right biceps tendinitis, Marquez submitted an inflated 5.67 ERA and 1.64 WHIP with 73 punchouts over 98.1 innings in 20 starts with the Rockies.
