Janson Junk Injury: Out with ulnar nerve irritation

The Marlins placed Junk on the 15-day injured list Wednesday due to right ulnar nerve irritation.

Junk departed his most recent start Saturday against the Blue Jays with discomfort in his pitching arm, and he's subsequently been diagnosed with the ulnar nerve issue. The righty will be eligible for activation Sept. 8, but it's too soon to know whether he has a chance to be ready to go on that date.
