Availability
Taylor Walls (hip) has been activated from the IL and is in Thursday's starting lineup.
Fantasy Impact
Walls has been out since September 5 due to a hip issue, but the slick-fielding shortstop is back with the Rays for Thursday's game. Walls has hit just .218 with a .596 OPS across 410 plate appearances, but he has swiped 21 bases. Nick Madrigal was optioned in a corresponding move.
Taylor Walls progressed to fielding ground balls on Friday.
Fantasy Impact

Taylor Walls (hip) was placed on the 10-day IL on Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact
Walls is dealing with a hip flexor strain and will miss at least the next 10 days. The slick-fielding shortstop is batting just .218 with a .596 OPS and two homers on the season, but he has picked up 21 steals over 117 games. Nick Madrigal was called up in a corresponding move.
Taylor Walls went 2-for-4 with two runs scored, an RBI and a stolen base in Friday's 9-4 loss to the San Diego Padres.
Fantasy Impact
After going hitless in five straight games, Walls got back on track Friday, recording two singles, scoring twice and driving in a run. While he's posted a .229/.299/.314 slash line in August, he's provided some value with five stolen bases. He's best left on waivers despite his everyday role.
Taylor Walls went 1-for-2 with a run scored, an RBI and a stolen base in Wednesday’s 7-6 win over the Toronto Blue Jays.
Fantasy Impact
Walls is seeing the ball well, as he's riding a 10-game hitting streak and has two homers during that span. He's swiped four bases in August and is a streaming or daily fantasy option while he's hot.
