Kevin Michael Melillo (born May 14, 1982 in Orlando, Florida) is a second baseman who plays for the Toronto Blue Jays organization. He was selected by the Oakland Athletics in the 5th round (157th overall) in the 2004 baseball draft. He made his major league debut on June 24, 2007, against the New York Mets. In one plate appearance, he has one walk, his only plate appearance and game to date; he thus became the fifth player in MLB history to accomplish this "feat", the best-known of which is Eddie Gaedel.

On June 5, 2008, Melillo was traded by Oakland to the Toronto Blue Jays and was assigned to their Triple-A affiliate, the Syracuse Chiefs.
