Weathers (5-6) allowed a run on three hits and two walks over 6.1 innings Sunday, striking out six and earning a win over Toronto.
Weathers loaded the bases with no outs in the first inning but escaped the threat unscathed. He didn't allow another runner into scoring position until Luis De Los Santos doubled and later scored in the seventh. At one point, Weathers retired 16 consecutive batters. He posted a 4.02 ERA over 15.2 innings after returning from a three-month stint on the injured list. Weathers finishes the 2024 season with a 3.63 ERA and an 80:24 K:BB through 86.2 frames.

Rotowire
Weathers (4-6) allowed a run on six hits and two walks while striking out two over five innings to earn the win over the Twins on Tuesday.
Weathers did better in his second start back from a finger injury. The Marlins gave him a four-run lead in the second inning, and he only gave one run back on Royce Lewis' RBI single in the third. Weathers has generally pitched well this year, allowing two runs or fewer in seven of his 15 starts. He's at a 3.81 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 74:22 K:BB across 80.1 innings. Weathers is tentatively projected to make one more start at Toronto this weekend.
Marlins' Ryan Weathers: Can't keep ball in park in return
Rotowire
Weathers (3-6) took the loss against the Dodgers on Wednesday, allowing six runs (five earned) on eight hits and no walks while striking out five batters over 4.1 innings.
Weathers made his first major-league start since June 7 following a stint on the injured list due to a finger injury. All of Los Angeles' runs against the left-hander came via the long ball, and the majority of the damage came in a five-run fourth inning that included a two-run blast by Tommy Edman and a three-run shot off the bat of Enrique Hernandez. The barrage of homers hasn't been typical for Weathers this season -- prior to Wednesday, he hadn't given up multiple home runs in any of his 13 outings and had surrendered a tolerable eight long balls over 71 frames overall.
Marlins' Ryan Weathers: Activated for start Wednesday
Rotowire
The Marlins reinstated Weathers (finger) from the 60-day injured list ahead of his scheduled start Wednesday against the Dodgers in Miami.
Miami designated long reliever Jeff Lindgren for assignment to clear room for Weathers on the 40-man roster and 28-man active roster. The southpaw had delivered five consecutive quality starts plus an 11-strikeout outing before he was lifted from his last appearance June 7 due to a left index finger strain. Though Weathers' return from the IL took longer than expected, he'll likely be in store for two more starts with the Marlins to close out the season. Weathers should be stretched out enough to handle somewhere close to a typical starter's workload after he tossed 78 pitches over five scoreless innings last Friday in his final rehab start with Triple-A Jacksonville.

Marlins' Ryan Weathers: In line for Wednesday return
Rotowire
Weathers (finger) is expected to be activated from the 60-day injured list to start Wednesday's game against the Dodgers, Isaac Azout of FishOnFirst.com reports.
In his third rehab appearances this past Friday, Weathers worked five scoreless innings for Triple-A Jacksonville, giving up two hits and walking three while striking out eight batters in the outing. After waiting a few days to see how he bounced back, the Marlins have determined that Weathers is ready to return from the IL. He'll face a tough challenge in his first big-league action since June 7, though he kept his team in the game in a matchup with the Dodgers back on May 8, giving up three runs over six innings.
Marlins' Ryan Weathers: Tosses 64 pitches in rehab outing
Rotowire
Weathers (finger) covered 2.2 innings in his second rehab start Sunday with Triple-A Jacksonville, striking out five while giving up four runs (two earned) on six hits and two walks.
After making his first rehab start at Single-A Jupiter this past Tuesday, Weathers jumped up a few rungs on the minor-league ladder for his second outing. He tossed 64 pitches (39 strikes) in the appearance, but the Marlins have yet to decide on Weathers' next step. He'll presumably be evaluated over the next day or two before Miami decides whether he'll be ready to return from the 60-day injured list to make his next start with the Marlins, or if he'll remain on assignment in the minors for one more outing.
Weathers (finger) tossed three scoreless innings with three strikeouts in his first rehab start with Single-A Jupiter on Tuesday.
Weathers threw 43 pitches in his first game action since he went down with a left index finger strain back in early June. The left-hander figures to require at least one more rehab start, likely at a higher affiliate, before being re-inserted into the Marlins' rotation. Weathers was showing signs of a breakout before getting injured, compiling a 3.55 ERA and 67:20 K:BB over 71 frames covering 13 starts.

Weathers looks set to increase the volume of his throwing after he tossed two innings and 35 pitches in his first live BP session Friday. The southpaw has been on the shelf since June 8 with a left index finger strain but looks poised to return from the 60-day injured list at some point in the second half of September.
