TOMMY NANCE NEWS

Activated Thursday Nance (groin) was reinstated from the 15-day injured list Thursday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Nance made a rehab appearance at Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday and struck out one in a perfect inning. The right-hander will rejoin the Marlins after a minimal IL stint and will be available out of the major-league bullpen for the final week of the regular season.

Beginning rehab assignment Nance (groin) will begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Impact Nance is eligible to return from the injured list late this week, and the start of his rehab assignment signals that he'll likely be in the mix to rejoin the Marlins' bullpen prior to the end of the regular season. Since the right-hander usually has short appearances out of the bullpen, it seems likely that he'll be cleared to return following a brief rehab stint.

Back in big leagues Nance was recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact The right-hander was demoted to Jacksonville on Sunday, but he'll be able to rejoin the big-league club before spending the minimum 10 days in the minors since Garrett Cooper (concussion) was placed on the injured list. Nance has a 5.46 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 41:14 K:BB across 28 innings for Miami this year.

Optioned to Jacksonville Nance was optioned to Triple-A Jacksonville on Sunday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Impact Nance allowed just a lone earned run while tossing three innings and striking out six batters in the nightcap of Saturday's doubleheader, but he likely would have been unavailable for a couple days after throwing 56 pitchers, so the Marlins decided to send him down and open up a spot for a fresh arm.

AUGUST 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Reinstated prior to nightcap Nance (groin) was reinstated from the 15-day injured list prior to the second game of Saturday's doubleheader against Atlanta, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Nance was on the injured list since July 24, but he began a rehab assignment in early August. He allowed a run on two hits and a walk while striking out three in three innings over two appearances in the minors and has now been cleared to rejoin the major-league club. He'll begin Saturday's nightcap on the mound but will likely serve as an opener since he hasn't pitched more than 2.1 innings in any outing this season.

AUGUST 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Slated for rehab assignment Nance (groin) threw a bullpen session Wednesday and will begin a rehab assignment this weekend, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Nance landed on the injured list July 24 but is closing in on a return. It's not yet clear how many rehab appearances the right-hander will make, but it's possible that he rejoins the Marlins' bullpen as early as next week.

AUGUST 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Suffers groin strain Nance was placed on the 15-day injured list Sunday with a right groin strain, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Nance presumably sustained the injury during Saturday's appearance against the Pirates when he allowed two hits and a walk with two strikeouts in a scoreless inning. The 31-year-old will now be unavailable for at least the next couple weeks.

JULY 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Called up Thursday Nance was recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville on Thursday, Andre Fernandez of Herald Sports reports.

Impact Nance will return to the big leagues after he was optioned to Triple-A on July 8. The 31-year-old has produced a 6.14 ERA and 1.68 WHIP with 30 punchouts over 22 innings in 17 appearances with Miami this year. Nance will replace Elieser Hernandez (illness), who was placed on the COVID-19-related injured list Thursday.

Recalled by Marlins Nance was recalled by the Marlins on Thursday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Headed to minors Nance was optioned to Triple-A Jacksonville on Thursday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Impact The Marlins claimed Nance off waivers Sunday, after he was designated for assignment by the Cubs. He made his major-league debut in 2021, and despite a disastrous 7.22 ERA, Nance showed some promising skills by racking up 30 strikeouts across 28.2 innings. Though he'll now begin the season at Triple-A Jacksonville, Nance will likely contribute out of Miami's bullpen at some point during the season.

APRIL 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Claimed by Marlins Nance was claimed off waivers by the Marlins on Sunday.

Impact Nance was designated for assignment by the Cubs on Thursday after he posted a 7.22 ERA and 1.33 WHIP in 28.2 innings across 27 relief appearances for the major-league club last year. He should have a chance to compete for a spot in the Marlins' bullpen with a week and a half remaining until Opening Day.

Designated for assignment Nance was activated from the COVID-19 injured list and designated for assignment Friday, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Impact Nance hit the COVID-19 injured list early in camp and won't have a 40-man roster spot to return to now that he's available again. As a 31-year-old with a 7.22 ERA in just 28.2 career major-league innings, he's far from a lock to get claimed off waivers.

Lands on COVID-19 injured list Nance was placed on the COVID-19 injured list Saturday, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.

Impact Nance actually ended last season on the same injured list. It's unclear if he's caught the virus himself this time around or if he's sidelined due to contract tracing.

Placed on injured list Nance was placed on the COVID-19 injured list Saturday, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.

Impact Nance joins a lengthy list of Cubs who have landed on the COVID-19 injured list late in the year, and it's not yet clear whether he's tested positive for the virus or whether he's considered a close contact. Right-hander Joe Biagini's contract was selected from Triple-A Iowa to take his place in the bullpen.

Recalled from Triple-A Nance was recalled by the Cubs on Friday, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Impact Nance made his big-league debut at age 30 this season and has thrown 21.1 innings at the highest level. His 5.06 ERA is poor, but his 26.1 percent strikeout rate and 54.7 percent groundball rate are both encouraging numbers. He'll fill the bullpen spot that had belonged to Adam Morgan, who was placed on the bereavement list.

SEPTEMBER 10, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Optioned to Triple-A The Cubs optioned Nance to Triple-A Iowa on Friday, Gordon Wittenmyer of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

Impact The righty had a miserable outing Wednesday, yielding five runs in 1.2 innings. Nance hit two batters on top of a walk and a home run. After 12 consecutive scoreless appearances to start the season, he's now allowed at least a run in six of his last seven games. Kohl Stewart was recalled in a corresponding move.

JULY 2, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to Cubs roster The Cubs recalled Nance from Triple-A Iowa on Tuesday.

Impact The righty rejoins the big-league club just a day after being optioned. Nance was demoted for struggling in five of his last six appearances, but he'll be called upon to help fill the void left in Chicago's bullpen by Ryan Tepera (calf), whom the Cubs placed on the injured list Tuesday.

JUNE 29, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Sent to minors Nance was optioned to Triple-A Iowa on Monday, Tony Andracki of Marquee Sports Network reports.

Impact Nance tossed 11.1 scoreless innings across his first 12 appearances with the major-league club this year, but he posted a 9.53 ERA in 5.2 innings across his last four appearances. He'll attempt to sort things out in the minors after right-hander Trevor Megill was recalled in a corresponding move.

JUNE 28, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Earns first MLB win Nance (1-0) pitched two scoreless innings of relief and earned the win Friday against the Cardinals. He walked a batter and struck out two.

Impact The 30-year-old rookie has been good so far for the Cubs, as he has now gone 11.1 innings without allowing a run, and he's struck out 13. Friday's win in relief was also the first for Nance at the big-league level. Chicago's bullpen has featured a few surprising performers this season, and Nance is adding his name to that list. He should continue to see opportunities as long as he's pitching well.

Impact The 30-year-old rookie is among several unsung relievers who have helped turn the Chicago bullpen into one of baseball's better units through the first two-plus months of the season. Nance has earned more high-leverage work as a result of getting off to a hot start to his big-league career, but he won't enter the mix for saves so long as Craig Kimbrel continues to pitch at an elite level.
