Taylor Walls taking seat Tuesday for Tampa Bay

Tampa Bay Rays infielder Taylor Walls is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against right-hander Alek Manoah and the Toronto Blue Jays.

What It Means:

Walls is taking a seat after singling and scoring in Monday's series opener. Joey Wendle is shifting to shortstop and hitting fifth. Brandon Lowe is returning to the lineup to play second base and bat leadoff. Yandy Diaz is dropping two spots to bat third.
