Mondesi will make his sixth consecutive start at second base Sunday against the Rangers, MLB.com reports. He'll bat ninth in the order.
As was expected when he was recalled from Triple-A Omaha on Tuesday, Mondesi has been given a crack at the everyday role at second base after the struggling Whit Merrifield was demoted to the minors. Mondesi has gotten off to a promising 6-for-17 start at the dish while successfully stealing a base in his lone attempt, but his presence at the bottom of the Royals' lineup will limit his run-scoring opportunities.
