Marlins Expect To Activate Eury Perez Next Week

By Anthony Franco | June 3, 2025 at 11:34pm CDT

The Marlins plan to welcome Eury Pérez back from the injured list for next week’s series against the Pirates, writes Christina De Nicola of MLB.com. The 6’8″ righty will be making his first MLB appearance since his 2023 rookie season. Pérez underwent Tommy John surgery last April and is now 14 months removed from the procedure. Miami has a full 40-man roster and will need to make a corresponding move once he’s officially reinstated.

Pérez was the sport’s top pitching prospect when the Marlins called him up in May ’23. He arrived in the majors at age 20 armed with an upper-90s fastball that led a strong four-pitch mix. His advanced command was equally impressive, as most young pitchers who are anywhere close to his height struggle to repeat their mechanics. Most evaluators projected him as a future top-of-the-rotation starter.

His first look at MLB hitters reinforced that optimism. Pérez managed a 3.15 earned run average over 19 starts. He punched out nearly 29% of opponents against a serviceable 8.3% walk rate while sitting in the 97-98 MPH range with his fastball. He finished seventh in NL Rookie of the Year balloting and would likely have placed higher had the Marlins not optioned him for a month midseason as a check on his innings. The elbow injury arose during the following Spring Training and cost him all of last year.

Pérez returned to game action in late April, beginning a rehab assignment at Low-A Jupiter. He made five abbreviated appearances there before jumping to Triple-A Jacksonville two weeks ago. He made three more starts, building to 82 pitches across 4 1/3 innings tonight. He finished his Triple-A run with a 2.13 ERA and 15 strikeouts across 12 1/3 frames. His fastball averaged 97.8 MPH.

It’s not all positives for the Miami rotation, however. Max Meyer landed on the 15-day IL with a left hip impingement before tonight’s loss to the Rockies. Manager Clayton McCullough told reporters (including Craig Mish of SportsGrid) that the issue has bothered Meyer for a few starts. The former third overall pick has struggled of late, allowing at least four runs in six of his past seven appearances. He had carried a 3.18 ERA with an excellent 33.1% strikeout rate into May but has surrendered more than six earned runs per nine since then. Meyer’s strikeout rate has fallen below 15% in that stretch, during which opponents are hitting .321.

Sandy Alcantara took the ball tonight, while Cal Quantrill will oppose his former team in the series finale against Colorado. Miami is off Thursday. Edward Cabrera, Ryan Weathers and Alcantara are lined up for their weekend set in Tampa Bay. Pérez could return on Monday or follow Quantrill and take the ball on Tuesday if the Marlins want to give him an extra day of rest after tonight’s rehab appearance.

    Eury has the smooth delivery, will be interesting to see how he fairs in his return. I like Eury more than Skenes.

    Speaking of Skenes, good start yesterday but McCullers is a gamer and nailed the Pirates.

          If so that’s both insane and very impressive.

        Because I spend a good amount of time having MLBTR on another tab when I’m available and aside from reading articles, I also spend time in the comment section too.

        It’s the fact that a troll like this is that persistent for me to be able to keep track of says more about the situation.

    This guy is a top 5 pitcher in the NL. Young and amazing. I loaded up on his cards while he’s been out. As usual, I’m going to be right again
