Marquis out for six weeks. No surgery.

masnBen - Jason Marquis does not need surgery. He had a cortisone shot today, and will take 7-10 days off, according to a team release.

masnBen - According to the release, Marquis is anticipated to return in six weeks.

I'm sure he'll have the surgery in six weeks time though.

Actually, he'll have the surgery after he comes back and has two or three more terrible outings. That's the Nationals Way!

Is there someone among us who can explain how floating bodies can be cured by a cortisone shot?

cortisone shot is to relieve the pain

I'm no medical expert, but it seems weird that they wouldn't remove everything with surgery

Cortisone is to relieve swelling, and if it's a nerve issue, it can makes things far more painful.

Cortisone does more than just block pain. It also promotes healing with certain types of injuries.
