Marlins' Tommy Nance: Starts rehab assignment
Rotowire
Nance (shoulder) began a rehab assignment with the Marlins' Florida Complex League affiliate on Wednesday.

Marlins' Tommy Nance: Completes side session
Rotowire
Nance (shoulder) threw a 15-pitch bullpen session Tuesday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
Nance has resided on the injured list all season due to a right shoulder strain, though he was able to make a minor-league rehab appearance May 12 before being shut down following a setback. He's beginning to ramp up again and will likely need to complete a few more side sessions before eventually graduating to facing hitters in live batting practice and then restarting a rehab assignment.

Rotowire
Nance (shoulder) is scheduled to throw a 30-pitch bullpen session Tuesday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

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