Melville agreed to a contract July 12 with the Uni-President 7-Eleven Lions of the Chinese Professional Baseball League, CPBLStats.com reports.
After being waived by the Rockies in May, Melville elected to head overseas when he failed to receive a spot in the 60-man roster pool of any of MLB's other 29 teams. Melville made seven starts for Colorado in the second half of the 2019 season, posting a 4.86 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 24:14 K:BB in 33.1 innings.
