Fantasy Impact:
It's just the second start of the season for the 24-year-old out of the six-hole as he's largely hit between leadoff and the cleanup spot this season. It's an interesting decision considering Melendez has turned things around at the plate with hits in seven of his last eight games with six RBI and seven runs scored in that time. He'll also man right field and take on Padres righty Seth Lugo Tuesday night in San Diego.
