NEW YORK \u2014 The Miami Marlins\u2019<\/a> pitching staff took another hit Sunday, when Janson Junk was placed on the 15-day injured list due to right shin inflammation.<\/p>\n

Junk was scheduled to start the series finale against the New York Mets<\/a> . But the 30-year-old right-hander, who said he began feeling discomfort in the shin while preparing for a start against the Washington Nationals on May 9, said he was discouraged by how he felt throughout this week and during his bullpen Saturday.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s kind of where we made the decision to let\u2019s try to look at this, pinpoint exactly what it is and have a better game plan of how to attack it,\u201d Junk said.<\/p>\n

Marlins manger Clayton McCullough said he\u2019s hopeful Junk won\u2019t need much more than a minimum stint on the shelf.<\/p>\n

\u201cBeing his plant leg, drive-off leg, get some time off his feet, we\u2019re encouraged \u2014 we believe it\u2019s going to potentially be a two-to-three week thing,\u201d McCullough said. \u201cLet the inflammation get out of there and we\u2019ll see how he responds.\u201d<\/p>\n

Left-hander John King will start a bullpen game for the Marlins. Josh White, who was recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville to replace Junk on the roster, is expected to make his big league debut at some point Sunday. White is 4-0 with a 1.33 ERA and one save in 17 games at Jacksonville.<\/p>\n

Junk is the third Marlins pitcher to go on the injured list in as many days. Fellow starter Eury P\u00e9rez, who went on the shelf Friday due to a right gracilis strain, could miss up to two months. McCullough said Sunday that left-handed Andrew Nardi, who went on the IL Saturday, will be sidelined for up to three months with a stress reaction in his left rib cage.<\/p>\n

Junk is also the third starter the Marlins have lost this month. Rookie left-hander Robby Snelling, who suffered a UCL sprain following his big league debut May 8, underwent Tommy John surgery May 21.<\/p>\n

McCullough said off days Thursday and June 8 will help the Marlins navigate their rotation.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnfortunately, injuries are a part of this and right now, having a few of them happen at the same time, it will test our depth some,\u201d McCullough said. \u201cThe schedule gets broken up a little bit to be able to feel like (they\u2019ll) be able to manage this. Whether it be traditional starters or openers, bullpen games, we\u2019ll be fine.<\/p>\n
