Scratched from Friday's start Thompson is feeling under the weather and was scratched from Friday's start against Atlanta, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact The right-hander was slated to make his final start before the All-Star break Friday versus Atlanta, but he won't be able to pitch due to the ailment. Trevor Rogers and Pablo Lopez are penciled in as the starters for Saturday and Sunday, respectively, so Thompson likely won't pitch again until after the midseason festivities. The Marlins are expected to employ a bullpen game Friday in his absence.

Whiffs six in no-decision Thompson allowed three runs on five hits and a walk with six strikeouts in six innings in a no-decision versus Atlanta on Sunday.

Impact While Thompson didn't allow much, three of the hits he gave up went for extra bases -- a two-run home run by Ronald Acuna and a pair of Dansby Swanson doubles. The right-hander continues to put together good outings, as Sunday was Thompson's second straight quality start. He has a 2.25 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 31:7 K:BB through 24 innings spanning five appearances. He carries a 2-2 record into next weekend's rematch with Atlanta.

Start pushed to Sunday Thompson will start Sunday in Atlanta instead of Saturday as previously scheduled, Craig Mish of SportsGrid.com reports.

Impact The rookie right-hander will swap spots in the rotation with Sandy Alcantara, who will now take the mound Saturday. Thompson has pitched well in four starts since making his debut in early June with a 1.50 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 25:6 K:BB across 18 innings.

Thompson strikes out 11, Marlins beat Nationals 3-2

Rookie Zach Thompson struck out 11 in six innings, helping the Miami Marlins beat Kyle Schwarber and the Washington Nationals 3-2

JUNE 26, 2021 • Associated Press

Shines in Saturday start Thompson (2-2) allowed two runs on four hits and two walks while striking out a career-high 11 to pick up the win against the Nationals on Saturday.

Impact Thompson earned a quality start with his terrific performance, limiting Washington to an RBI-double by Juan Soto in the first inning and another by Starlin Castro in the fourth. The 27-year-old Thompson now owns an impressive 25:6 K:BB through his first 18 major league innings, and has allowed just three runs (two earned) over his past three starts.

Unlucky loss Sunday Thompson (1-2) allowed an unearned run on three walks and struck out seven in four innings, taking the loss Sunday versus the Cubs.

Impact Thompson wasn't bad Sunday, but Miami's offense went quiet. In the third inning, Jason Heyward got aboard with a walk, reached third on an error and scored on a passed ball, which was enough to stick the right-hander with his second loss. Thompson has pitched well in 12 innings across his first three starts, allowing just three runs (two earned), eight hits and four walks. He's also struck out 14. The 27-year-old lines up to face Washington next weekend if he gets another turn in the rotation.

JUNE 20, 2021 • Associated Press

Blanks Atlanta for first MLB win Thompson (1-1) picked up the win Saturday, giving up four hits over five scoreless innings in a 4-2 victory over Atlanta. He struck out six without walking a batter.

Impact In only his second big-league start, the unheralded 27-year-old held the Atlanta offense in check over 66 pitches (45 strikes) and lasted just long enough to collect his first win. Thompson hadn't tossed more than three innings in any outing this year, either for Miami or for Triple-A Jacksonville, but with the Marlins scrambling to find warm bodies to plug into the rotation right now, he will continue to get stretched out after this strong performance.

Deemed fine after first MLB start Marlins manager Don Mattingly said after Monday's 5-3 loss to the Red Sox that Thompson is feeling fine after his start and was pulled in the fourth inning merely as a precaution,...

Impact The 27-year-old stepped into the Miami rotation for his big-league debut and was under a strict pitch count after having worked no more than three innings in any of his eight appearances at Triple-A Jacksonville prior to his recent call-up. Rather than as the result of any sort of injury, Thompson looks to have been pulled early due to workload concerns. After tossing 55 pitches Monday, Thompson should have his restriction bumped up another 10-to-20 pitches if he's needed to make another start this weekend versus Atlanta.
