Junis, who's last outing was skipped, will toe the rubber Thursday afternoon in the series' finale against Colorado, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander got bypass over the weekend because Kansas City has no need for a sixth starter with a five-game on tap. Junis did appear in a long relief role Friday, but that wasn't pretty (four runs over 2.1 innings). He's done better, however, in a starting role (4.79 ERA in eight games) than as a reliever (6.75 ERA in four games) this season.
