Mondesi is not in the lineup Saturday against the Astros.
Mondesi will sit for the first time this season, as the Royals will go with Christian Colon at second base Saturday. After a strong spring training, Mondesi has struggled early on, going just 2-for-14 at the plate with four strikeouts. Perhaps more concerning from a fantasy perspective, however, is the fact that the 21-year-old appears locked into the ninth spot in the batting order, at least for the foreseeable future.
