Exiting lineup with lefty starting
Walton is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.
Análisis
Walton will hit the bench while southpaw Connor Prielipp toes the rubber for the Twins, but the left-handed hitter should play regularly versus right-handed pitching until Zack Gelof (knee) or Joshua Kuroda-Grauer (testicle) return from the injured list. Since joining the Athletics on July 12, Walton has gone 2-for-16 with a 7:5 BB:K and five runs in eight games.

Playing regularly versus RHP
Walton will start at second base and bat fifth in Wednesday's game against the Diamondbacks.
Análisis
Walton was on the bench for each of the last three games while the Athletics faced left-handed starters, but he's been included in the lineup for all three of the team's matchups versus righties since he was claimed off waivers July 12. Between his stops with the Angels and Athletics, Walton has posted an .868 OPS over 111 plate appearances on the season. While he remains productive at the dish, Walton could play fairly regularly against righties until the Athletics reclaim some health in the infield.
