After scoring just three runs against the San Francisco Giants over the weekend, the offense-starved Indians called up top prospect third baseman Lonnie Chisenhall before Monday’s game against the Diamondbacks. Chisenhall responded by going 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI single in his major league debut.

Chisenhall never produced big numbers at the minor league level, including a .265 batting average and .779 OPS over 65 games with Triple-A Columbus this season, but his promotion is worth a shot when Indians’ third basemen have combined to bat just .220 this season. Manny Acta may sit Chisenhall against tough left-handed starters, as he had a .200 batting average in 75 at-bats against southpaws at Triple-A this season. Chisenhall does not have a great deal of value in mixed leagues right now, but the third base eligibility certainly helps. He’s at least worth securing in AL-only formats.
