Burnes (shoulder) remains on track to make his next start Saturday against the Dodgers in Arizona, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.

Burnes was initially slated to make his seventh start of the season Monday, but the Diamondbacks ended up skipping his turn after he was diagnosed with right shoulder inflammation following an MRI late last week. Following the MRI, Burnes received a cortisone shot to address the shoulder issue, and the injection appears to have had the desired effect. He's scheduled to throw a bullpen session Wednesday, and if all goes well, the Diamondbacks will lock him in for a start this weekend.
