Walls was scratched from the lineup for Saturday's game against the Tigers due to illness, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Ryan McMahon 3B | NYY
Rockies' Ryan McMahon: Starting against lefty
McMahon will start at third base and hit sixth in Saturday's game against the Nationals.

Maggi's contract was selected by the Twins on Saturday, Brandon Warne of Access Twins reports.
The 32-year-old was drafted all the way back in 2010 but has yet to make his major-league debut. He'll get his chance after hitting .261/.364/.486 with 16 homers and 12 steals in 86 games for Triple-A St. Paul, though his 31.0 percent strikeout rate suggests that expectations for him should be modest.

Urias has been hot at the plate recently, hitting .324/.419/.500 over his last 23 games, though his 30.2 percent strikeout rate over that stretch suggests he's due to regress. Pat Valaika takes over at second base Saturday.
