Marquis (oblique) has been activated from the DL at Triple-A Lehigh Valley and will start Wednesday's game. On the shelf since July 22 with an oblique strain, the 35-year-old will return to the mound for the first time in over three weeks. He has not pitched in the majors this season but has impressed in five minor league starts, going 2-0 with a 1.84 ERA in 29.1 cumulative innings. If he continues to pitch well, he could make a couple starts for the last-place Phillies in September.
