AI-synthesized · Bias removed · Facts only

Miami Marlins right-hander Max Meyer has been placed on the 15-day injured list due to a neck strain, while shortstop Otto Lopez is currently out of the starting lineup. The injuries impact the team’s roster as they face upcoming games.

The Miami Marlins announced Monday that All-Star pitcher Max Meyer will be sidelined for at least two weeks after being placed on the 15-day injured list with a neck strain. Manager Clayton McCullough explained that Meyer first experienced discomfort during his start in Seattle on July 7, stating he felt “a little sensation in the neck area.”

The Marlins plan to have Meyer examined by Dr. Robert Watkins IV in Los Angeles this week to further assess the injury and determine a course of treatment. No specific details regarding the severity of the strain were released.

In addition to Meyer’s injury, All-Star shortstop Otto Lopez is also unavailable, having been held out of the starting lineup for the second consecutive game. The reason for Lopez's absence was reported as finger inflammation.
