Returning to lineup Tuesday
Walls (fingers) will start at shortstop and bat eighth in Tuesday's game versus the Rangers.
Análise
Walls missed four games with two hyperextended fingers on his left hand, but he's feeling well enough to give it a go in Tuesday's series opener. The slick-fielding, light-hitting shortstop is slashing just .223/.313/.296 with zero home runs and 15 stolen bases for the Rays this season.

Sitting again Sunday
Walls (fingers) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.
Análise
It's the fourth straight absence for Walls, who hyperextended the middle and ring fingers on his left hand during a slide into second base Wednesday. Tampa Bay has a team day off Monday, so the 30-year-old will have had nearly a week off to recover by the time Tuesday's series opener versus the Rangers rolls around. Ben Williamson is receiving another start at shortstop Sunday for the Rays.

Battling hyperextended fingers
Walls was diagnosed with hyperextended middle and ring fingers on his left hand following Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays, Ryan Bass of Rays.tv reports.
Análise
Walls suffered the injury while sliding into second base in the fifth inning. He was able to play through the injury and finish the contest, but manager Kevin Cash said after the game that Walls will likely sit out Thursday's series finale as a precaution. Ben Williamson will presumably fill in as Tampa Bay's shortstop and could continue to do so if Walls is forced to miss any additional starts.
