Lambert has been recalled from Triple-A Charlotte and will start Game 2 of Monday's doubleheader against Cleveland, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

It was announced Sunday that Lambert would take the ball in one of Monday's two games. He'll make his first major-league start in Game 2, with Carlos Rodon taking the ball in Game 1. Manager Tony La Russa said Lambert is stretched out to be able to throw between 65 and 70 pitches, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
