Royals' Billy Burns: Gets first start with Royals

Burns will get his first start for the Royals on Thursday, manning center field and hitting eighth, MLB.com's Jeffrey Flanagan reports.

Analysis:

He will allow Lorenzo Cain to get a breather in the day game following Wednesday's night game, offering a speed presence at the bottom of the lineup. Burns will likely get a couple starts per week now that he is up with the big league club.
