INJURIES
Scratched from Saturday's lineup Walls (undisclosed) was scratched from the Rays' starting lineup against the Mariners on Saturday, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.
Impact Walls was originally slated to start at shortstop. Now that he's out of the lineup, Ha-Seong Kim will move to shortstop while Tristan Gray starts at the keystone. The Rays should provide an update on Walls before Saturday's game.

Sitting after four straight starts Walls is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Impact Walls will head to the bench after he went 2-for-12 with a walk, a stolen base, an RBI and two runs while starting in each of the past four games. Though the Rays have both Brandon Lowe and Ha-Seong Kim healthy for one of the few times all season, Walls could continue to see semi-regular opportunities in the middle infield if Lowe ends up getting more exposure to first base while Jonathan Aranda (wrist) is on the shelf.

Pops rare homer Walls went 2-for-3 with a solo home run Sunday against the Reds.
Impact Walls has retaken the starting shortstop role with Ha-Seong Kim (back) on the injured list, starting each of the last seven games. He has been surprisingly productive in that span, recording six RBI, two runs scored and two stolen bases. Walls also went yard Sunday for the fourth time this season, his first home run since July 6.

Filling in at keystone for Lowe Walls will start at second base and bat ninth in Sunday's game against the Red Sox, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.
Impact Though he looked like he would lose out on playing time in the middle infield when Ha-Seong Kim was reinstated from the injured list July 3, Walls has proceeded to start in eight of the Rays' ensuing 10 games. He initially benefited from Kim missing out on three straight starts due to a calf issue, but Walls now appears poised to get most of his opportunities at the keystone after Brandon Lowe (oblique) was placed on the IL on Friday. Tampa Bay values Walls primarily for his defense, but he hasn't been a total zero at the plate thus far in July. He'll head into Sunday's contest with a .267 average, one home run and two steals through his first 10 games of the month.

Tallies third homer Walls went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Sunday against the Twins.
Impact Walls' playing time has fluctuated this season, and he's likely to primarily become a fielding replacement once Ha-Seong Kim (calf) is able to return to the lineup. However, Walls took advantage of his start Sunday, popping his third home run of the season to lead off the third inning. Despite the positive performance, he's gone just 3-for-22 across his last seven starts.

Swipes bag in loss Walls went 1-for-2 with a stolen base in Tuesday's loss to the Athletics.
Impact Walls entered the game in the seventh and led off the eighth with a base knock. He would swipe second but was stranded there with the game tied. Walls has just two hits in his last 19 at-bats and sports a .210 batting average, which is right in line with the low average he's posted throughout his five-year career. His stolen base Tuesday brought him up to 10 for the year and it's now his fourth consecutive season with double-digit thefts.

On bench Wednesday Walls is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.
Impact Walls will hit the bench for the second time in three games as Jose Caballero gets the nod at shortstop. Though the Rays value Walls mainly for his defense and baserunning, he's maintained an .826 OPS so far in June, which should allow him to continue holding down at least a semi-regular role in the lineup.

Taking back shortstop gig Walls will start at shortstop and bat ninth in Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.
Impact Walls appears to have taken back primary duties at shortstop away from Jose Caballero, who is on the bench against a righty for the second time in three contests and who has also made two of his previous three starts in the outfield. Meanwhile, Walls will be occupying shortstop for the sixth time in seven games, with his hot run at the plate giving Rays manager Kevin Cash some extra incentive to keep his bat in the lineup. Walls has opened June by going 7-for-20 with a home run, two doubles, two walks, a stolen base and six RBI in seven contests.
