Martinez (back) is batting cleanup as the designated hitter Tuesday versus Cleveland, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports.

EDGE Analysis

This will be Martinez's first start since the All-Star break, as he's been battling back spasms. It's been a pretty pedestrian month for the veteran DH, as he's hit .254 with seven extra-base hits and 17 strikeouts in 59 at-bats in July.
