Jazz Chisholm Jr. out at least 6 more weeks with stress fracture

Fresh off enjoying the MLB All-Star festivities in Los Angeles, Jazz Chisholm Jr. underwent a CT scan on Thursday that revealed a stress fracture in his lower back, according to Craig Mish and Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald. Sidelined since June 29, Chisholm isn’t expected back on the Marlins active roster until September.

My *opinion* is 6 wks is optimistic. I would not expect him back until mid to late September. I would add there would be no reason to push him if they were out of contention.
