Hoffman will not start Wednesday against the Cardinals, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.
The Rockies will instead turn to German Marquez in the series finale against St. Louis. Although the team has not said explicitly that Hoffman is out of its six-man rotation, it would make sense if Hoffman were given at least a temporary breather after a disappointing five-start run to begin his major league career (6.04 ERA, 1.88 WHIP, seven homers allowed in 22.1 innings).
