Taylor Walls Scratched with Groin Issue
Taylor Walls (groin) is out of Wednesday's lineup for their home matchup against the Houston Astros. Ryan Bass of the team reported the news. The Florida State product has been much more productive since the calendar flipped to May, batting nearly 100 points higher than the .145 average he posted in April (.234). Fortunately, manager Kevin Cash noted that he doesn't expect the injury to be serious, and hopes that the day of rest today and their off day tomorrow will be enough to help it subside. Teammate Jose Caballero is in at shortstop -- batting fifth -- in his stead. We'll see if a few days of lazing are enough to get him back on the field.
