Walls will start at shortstop and bat ninth in Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.

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. His stint at the top of the depth chart could be brief however, with Ha-Seong Kim (shoulder) closing in on his activation from the injured list.

Caballero is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.

Caballero should continue to play regularly versus left-handed pitching, but he seems to have fallen back into a timeshare at shortstop with Taylor Walls when the Rays face right-handed pitching. Caballero will take a seat for the second time in the Rays' last three matchups versus righties to open up a spot in the lineup for Walls, who offers a better glove and has been hot at the plate lately (7-for-17 with a home run and two doubles over his last five games).

Wilson (hamstring) remains out of the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Angels.

Wilson was a late scratch from Tuesday's lineup due to left hamstring tightness and will miss a second straight start. The Athletics are off Thursday, so Wilson will hope to re-enter the lineup Friday in Kansas City. Max Schuemann will again fill in at shortstop and bat ninth.

Single-A Carolina placed Adamczewski on its 7-day injured list May 28 due to left SC joint irritation in his back, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

On a talent-laden Carolina roster, Adamczewski shined brightly through the first month of the season, slashing .360/.450/.539 with two home runs and one stolen base in 111 plate appearances over his first 24 games. However, he hadn't played since May 2 before he was placed on the injured list almost four weeks later. Carolina hasn't offered up a timeline for Adamczewski to make his return to the lineup.

Bichette went 3-for-5 with three runs scored in Tuesday's win over the Cardinals.

The shortstop set the table effectively from the leadoff spot as the Blue Jays piled up 10 runs on the night. Bichette has been on a roll since late May, slashing .293/.328/.569 over his last 14 games with four homers, nine runs and 13 RBI to push his OPS on the season to .745 -- a huge rebound after he crashed to a .599 OPS in 2024.

De La Cruz went 1-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Tuesday's 1-0 win over the Guardians.

The 23-year-old shortstop has slowed down on the basepaths of late, attempting a steal in only three of his last 15 contests, but De La Cruz is still up to 20 pilfers on the season, putting him sixth in MLB behind league leader Jose Caballero's 25. De La Cruz has hardly been quiet during that 15-game stretch, however, slashing .294/.410/.569 with five doubles, three homers, six RBI and 14 runs.

Story went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's win over the Rays.

Story took Ryan Pepiot deep to left field in the sixth to give the Red Sox some insurance. He's now posted multiple hits in four straight games, including two homers and eight RBI. In June, he's slashing .343/.395/.571, and his 11 RBI this month lead the American League.

Arias went 1-for-3 with a double and a stolen base in Tuesday's 1-0 loss to the Reds.

Arias had one of only three Guardian hits in the game. The double extended a hit streak to five games, during which he's gone 7-for-19 (.368) with four doubles and an RBI. The stolen base was his third of the season and first successful attempt since April 30.

Perdomo went 1-for-3 with a double and two RBI in Tuesday's 10-3 win over the Mariners.

Perdomo pushed across another two runs with teammates in scoring position and has 45 RBI this season, while batting .302 with RISP through 66 games. He's two RBI shy of the career best he posted over 144 games in 2023. Perdomo's production has waned this month -- he's slashing .152/.250/.303 over nine June contests -- but overall he's been a good fantasy value at shortstop and sports a career-high .786.

Adames went 1-for-3 with a home run, two RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's victory over the Rockies.

Adames opened the scoring with a sacrifice fly in the first inning, and then added a solo home run in the fifth. The shortstop has had a rough 2025 campaign, slashing just .194/.283/.316 with 17 extra-base hits and 28 RBI over 66 games. His struggles have continued into June with a .419 OPS, but perhaps Tuesday's performance will spark a turnaround.
