Burleson will start at first base and bat seventh Tuesday against the Diamondbacks.
Burleson was originally in line to receive a day off Tuesday with left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez on the mound for Arizona, but Masyn Winn's thumb injury will put Burleson back in the starting nine. The 27-year-old owns a career-best .847 OPS on the season through 330 plate appearances, though that number plummets to just .463 when he's matched up against a southpaw.
