Looks like Junis will start the season in Omaha with Skoglund getting his spot on the 25 man roster. Skoglund will work out of the bullpen. Junis would return in time to make his start as the fifth starter and Skoglund will return to Omaha where he will continue to work as a starter.
"Eric Skoglund is rumored to be starting the year in the bullpen, but if that’s the case he’ll likely be demoted to AAA so Jake Junis can take over the final rotation spot within a week or two."

This is not surprising at all nor is Ned at any fault. If Junis is our #5 then keeping him down at the very, very, very beginning of the season is rather common.
