Kopech will start Sunday's game against the Rangers, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lucas Giolito was expected to work Sunday's game, but the team will instead opt to give Kopech his second start of the season. Kopech threw only 41 pitches across three innings in his first start of the campaign, leaving it unclear how deep he will be able to work this time around. On the other hand, he's provided quality innings while on the mound, amassing a 1.69 ERA with a 17:4 K:BB across 10.2 frames.
