Monasterio will start at shortstop and bat ninth in Sunday's game against the Giants.

The 28-year-old will stay in the lineup for a third straight game after Joey Ortiz (hamstring) was placed on the injured list Friday. Monasterio is batting a respectable .257 over 80 plate appearances this season, but he doesn't bring much power or speed to the table and is unlikely to offer much fantasy value while typically slotting in near the bottom of the Milwaukee lineup.
