Mondesi was recalled from Triple-A Omaha prior to Sunday's doubleheader against the Twins, Rustin Dodd of The Kansas City Star reports.
After winning the starting second base gig out of spring training, Mondesi was banished to the minors in late April after getting off to a 4-for-39 (.103 average) start to the season. The 21-year-old was able to get back on track in Omaha with a .324/.383/.554 slash line over 83 plate appearances and could eventually receive another full-time look at the keystone now that he's back with the big club. Before that happens, however, Mondesi will have to prove that he's a superior option to Whit Merrifield, who has been marginally better than Mondesi was since taking over as the Royals' primary second baseman.
