Manager Kevin Cash said Saturday that Walls (hip) isn't recovering as quickly as the Rays had originally hoped, MLB.com reports.

Walls has yet to play this season while recovering from offseason hip surgery. He was expected to return by mid-April, but he has no clear timeline to come off the 10-day injured list at this point. Walls' ongoing absence should ensure continued playing time for Jose Caballero at shortstop.

Devers (shoulder) will start at third base and bat sixth in Monday's game versus the Guardians.

Devers missed four contests with a lingering left shoulder issue, but he's feeling well enough to return to action for Monday's Patriots Day game. He and his teammates will be going up against right-hander Xzavion Curry.

Arias went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and two total runs scored in Sunday's 8-7 extra-inning win over the Yankees.

Arias' playing time has been limited this season as he serves in a utility role off the bench. He got a start at shortstop Sunday and delivered with his first homer and second extra-base hit of the season. The 24-year-old also made defensive shifts to first base and right field during the contest. He's hitting just .227 with four RBI, four runs scored and a stolen base over 23 plate appearances. With Brayan Rocchio batting .217 so far, there could be a chance for Arias to avenge his position battle loss from spring training as the regular season progresses.

Paredes went 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBI on Sunday against the Giants.

Paredes ended a three-game hitless streak with an RBI single in the third frame. Four innings later, he blasted a solo home run -- his fifth long ball of the campaign. Paredes has played in 14 of the Rays' 15 games this season and has hit cleanup on 12 occasions.

Ramirez went 2-for-5 with a two-run homer in Sunday's win over the Yankees.

Ramirez put the Guardians on the board with a two-run shot in the third inning. It was his third long ball of the season and first since April 8. He was stuck in a three-game hitless drought entering Sunday's contest, going 0-for-13 during that stretch. Ramirez is now slashing .246/.257/.435 with six extra-base hits and 12 RBI through 70 plate appearances.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Sunday that LeMahieu (foot) could begin rehab assignment once the club finishes up the current road trip Wednesday in Toronto, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

The 35-year-old is traveling with the Yankees on the road trip and has continued to progress in his rehab work, with game action now seemingly on the horizon. LeMahieu was healthy for most of spring training before suffering the foot fracture in mid-March, so he shouldn't require an extended rehab assignment and could join the Yankees before the end of April.

Westburg went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run in Saturday's 11-5 loss to the Brewers.

Westburg gave the Orioles a 3-0 lead in the first inning with his third homer of the campaign. He's posted three multi-hit efforts over his last six games. The infielder has hit well to maintain a starting role, batting .261 with an .855 OPS, 10 RBI, eight runs scored, two stolen bases and three doubles through 52 plate appearances.

Triple-A Durham reinstated Caminero (quadricep) from its 7-day injured list ahead of Sunday's game against Lehigh Valley.

Caminero will make his return to the Triple-A lineup for the first time since March 31 after he injured his left quad in Durham's season-opening series. Before getting hurt, Caminero went 4-for-12 with a home run, two walks and one stolen base in three games with Durham. The 20-year-old will play on an everyday basis for Durham and will likely be the top option for a promotion if the Rays lose one of their regular infielders for any length of time down the road.

Urias went 1-for-2 with an RBI double in a loss to the Cubs on Saturday.

The offseason addition opened the game at third base and was able to contribute the only run of the game for the Mariners with his second-inning two-bagger that knotted the score at 1-1. His success Saturday notwithstanding, Urias is still scuffling overall with a .174 average and .296 on-base percentage; however, he also carries a .435 slugging percentage thanks to all four of his knocks to date having gone for extra bases.

Bregman (illness) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Bregman will sit for the third consecutive game as he continues to deal with an illness. According to Chandler Rome of The Athletic, Bregman was able to participate in baseball activities during a pregame workout, so he could be available off the bench and may be ready to return to the lineup Monday versus Atlanta. Mauricio Dubon will spell him at third base Sunday.
