Connor Norby responds on X after being placed on IL

by | Jul 18, 2025

Connor Norby doesn’t expect to come back right away from his injury.

The ECU baseball alum and Miami Marlins third baseman was placed on the 10-day Injured List on Sunday. He’s expected to miss more time and earlier this week, he saw a specialist to learn more about the injury and recovery process.

On his X page, he posted a message to his fans and even his distractors concerning his status.

“Not the season I’ve wanted up to this point but I’ll be back soon and the boys will continue to roll. Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers. Been a frustrating year personally but if you truly know me, you know how hard I’ll work to beat timelines and how hard I have and will continue to work to learn from this season and be better for it. And for all the doubters, you’ve been there my whole career and I keep receipts. Gods plan. John 13:7”
