Nova (knee) will make his scheduled start Sunday against the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

Nova battled left knee inflammation during his previous start Tuesday against the Orioles, but it wasn't anything that treatment from team trainers and a few days off couldn't remedy. The right-hander has been remarkably consistent in his first full season with the Pirates, covering six innings in each of his 12 starts and delivering a 3.04 ERA and 1.07 WHIP, though his strikeout rate has collapsed to a feeble 4.8 K/9.
