Skubal (hand) will start Wednesday's game in Kansas City, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

All the tests checked out on Skubal's bruised non-throwing hand, but he will end up getting an extra day of rest in between his starts. Evan Woodbery of MLive.com notes that the Tigers could squeeze three more starts total out of Skubal, with him staying on normal rest to start Sept. 24 at home against Tampa Bay and then working the final day of the regular season against the White Sox. Detroit is 2.5 games out of the final wild-card spot in the AL however, and if the team has nothing to play for by that point, Skubal could be shut down or have a restricted pitch count for his final outing.
