April 19, 2025 10:10 AM : The Royals optioned Melendez to Triple-A Omaha on Saturday.
Analysis: Melendez has logged just one base hit across his last seven games and only three since the beginning of April. He'll now head to the minors in order to sort things out at the plate, making room on the active roster for Mark Canha (hip) to return from the IL.
