Selected from Triple-A The Marlins selected Simpson's contract from Triple-A Jacksonville on Saturday.

Impact Simpson will join the Marlins' bullpen after logging a 3.41 ERA and 1.03 WHIP across 31.2 innings in Triple-A. He'll likely work in middle relief while in Miami, and he will replace Robinson Pina on both the 26-man and 40-man rosters.

JUNE 21 • ROTOWIRE

Making push for bullpen spot Simpson walked one and struck out five over 2.1 scoreless, no-hit innings in Thursday's Grapefruit League game against the Astros.

Impact The 27-year-old southpaw lost his spot on the 40-man roster during the offseason, but Simpson's performance in camp -- plus the Marlins' lack of established relief options from the left side -- has put him back on the radar. Simpson has a 12:4 K:BB through 9.1 Grapefruit League innings, and he's out-pitched Anthony Veneziano, who has an 8:7 K:BB in 9.2 spring frames. If Simpson does break camp on the 26-man roster, he may work in long relief behind an injury-ravaged rotation.

MARCH 21 • ROTOWIRE

Cast off 40-man Simpson cleared waivers and was outrighted off the Marlins' 40-man roster Monday.

Impact A 27-year-old southpaw, Simpson had surgery in April to repair the ulnar nerve in his left elbow and was able to return late in the year with a rehab assignment before being assinged to Triple-A. Simpson logged a 7.62 ERA, 1.77 WHIP and a 19:7 K:BB in his final 13 innings last season and has never reached the big leagues.

Reinstated, sent to Triple-A The Marlins activated Simpson (elbow) from the 60-day injured list and optioned him to Triple-A Jacksonville on Tuesday.

Impact The left-hander had the elbow issue surface in February and underwent surgery to repair the ulnar nerve in late April, but he's been fully cleared after an eight-appearance rehab assignment. Simpson surrendered six runs with an 11:8 K:BB across 8.2 innings during the rehab stint, so he'll be sent to Triple-A rather than joining Miami's bullpen.

SEPTEMBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Starting rehab assignment Simpson (elbow) is scheduled to pitch Tuesday for Single-A Jupiter, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Impact Simpson had been rehabbing at Jupiter and, after facing live hitters in late July, has been cleared to participate in games. The left-hander has been recovering from a procedure he underwent in April, and he'll likely require multiple rehab appearances before being activated.

Impact Simpson has been cleared to face batters after completing a pair of bullpen sessions in the last week.

He's ahead of schedule, with the initial expectation being that he required two more bullpens before facing hitters.

Ramping up Simpson (elbow) threw a 35-pitch bullpen Tuesday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Impact Tuesday's session marked Simpson's second bullpen since undergoing elbow surgery in late April. The lefty is expected to throw one or two more bullpens before being cleared to face hitters. He still seems to be multiple weeks away from being activated.
