Martinez will start in right field and bat second in Wednesday's contest versus the Dodgers.
Analysis
Martinez was out of the lineup for the first two games and three of the first four tilts of the season, but since then he's started three in a row and four of five contests. The switch hitter is 3-for-13 with one stolen base and a 0:5 BB:K in the early going this season.

Makes season debut
Martinez started in left field and went 1-for-4 with a double in Saturday's 6-5 extra-inning win over Seattle.
Analysis
Martinez parlayed a productive spring (1.196 OPS) into an Opening Day roster spot but not a role as a lineup regular. The Guardians have a few outfield prospects on the roster, including the red-hot Chase DeLauter (four HR), so Martinez may be limited to one or two starts per week. When George Valera (calf) is ready to rejoin the team, that could further cap opportunities for Martinez, or even lead to a demotion to the minors.
