Mondesi is out of the lineup Monday against the Twins, Joel Goldberg of FOX Sports Kansas City reports.
Mondesi went 1-for-9 with two runs scored during the Royals' recently completed three-game series with the Tigers, dropping his season average to .182 for the season. The Royals continue to exercise patience with the young middle infielder, but with the team in the midst of a tight race for a wild-card spot, Mondesi could be at risk of losing playing time down the stretch.
