Calhoun batted leadoff and went 2-for-4 with an RBI in Tuesday's 5-4 loss to the Rangers.

Calhoun has slumped since coming off the injured list July 10, going 4-for-37; however, manager Torey Lovullo opted to slot the veteran into the leadoff spot in order to get him as many at-bats as possible. That serves the dual purpose of getting him more at-bats with which to dial in his swing, which, if it leads to improvement, would make Calhoun more attractive leading up to the non-waiver trade deadline.
