Junk (shin) began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Jacksonville on Sunday, allowing one run on three hits and no walks while striking out three over 2.2 innings.
Junk got his pitch count up to 42 during in his first appearance in more than a month. Working his way back from right shin bone inflammation, Junk could require at least a couple more rehab outings before the Marlins decide whether to reinsert him into their rotation. The right-hander collected a 4.80 ERA and 43:13 K:BB over 60 frames covering 11 starts before getting hurt.
