Strasburg will start Sunday's game against the Phillies, MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

After A.J. Cole made a spot start Monday against the Marlins, it wasn't known if he would pick up a second start of the week in the series finale Sunday or move back to the bullpen, but Cole's usage out of the bullpen Saturday indicates that it will be Strasburg, who started Tuesday, that gets the two-step this week. With an active streak of 26 straight scoreless innings on his ledger, Strasburg is peaking at the right time for his season-long owners, and is justifying his high price point in daily contests, too.
