Expected to serve versatile role Palacios will see the majority of his playing time in the outfield but has also been working out at second base this spring, Adam Berry of MLB.com reports.

Impact The Rays acquired Palacios in a trade with the Cardinals this winter. Across two big-league seasons, he's played nearly exclusively in the outfield, though in typical fashion the Rays want to create as much versatility on their roster as possible. Palacios' fit at second base in particular is curious, as he hits lefty as does projected primary starter Brandon Lowe.

Traded to Rays The Cardinals traded Palacios to the Rays on Friday in exchange for Andrew Kittredge, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

Impact Shortly after sending Luke Raley to the Mariners, the Rays will replenish their outfield depth by acquiring Palacios. The 26-year-old Palacios showed promise late in the season with St. Louis, slashing .258/.307/.516 with six homers and 16 RBI across 102 plate appearances. With Randy Arozarena, Jose Siri and Josh Lowe already in Tampa Bay's outfield, Palacios will likely begin the season on the Rays' bench.

Impact Palacios has five homers this season, four of which have come over his last six games. The downside is those long balls are his only hits in his last nine contests. The 26-year-old outfielder is hitting .268 with 10 RBI, five runs scored, two doubles and a stolen base over 61 plate appearances in the majors this year.

Captures strong-side platoon role Palacios will start in left field and bat sixth in Monday's game against the Brewers.

Impact Palacios will stick in the lineup for the Cardinals' fourth consecutive matchup with a right-handed starting pitcher. Since receiving a call-up from Triple-A Memphis on Aug. 17, Palacios has slashed .275/.302/.549 with four home runs and a stolen base across 54 plate appearances. He should continue to occupy a strong-side platoon role in the corner outfield after the Cardinals recently placed Tyler O'Neill (foot) on the 10-day injured list.

Getting start in left field Palacios is starting in left field and batting sixth in Friday's contest against the Phillies, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

Impact Palacios homered twice off the bench Tuesday in Baltimore and went deep again in getting a start Wednesday, earning a second straight start Friday. Tyler O'Neill is getting a breather.

SEPTEMBER 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Provides only run in win Palacios went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 1-0 win over the Orioles.

Impact Palacios has homered three times over his last two games, so he may be disappointed that the Cardinals are done with Baltimore for the year. While he's primarily played in the outfield this season, he got the start and played the full game at second base Wednesday. With an outfield of Tyler O'Neill, Lars Nootbaar and Jordan Walker, Palacios would have a tough time carving out a role there, but Tommy Edman is a more experienced option at the keystone. Palacios is slashing .311/.340/.622 with four homers, nine RBI, four runs scored and a stolen base over 48 plate appearances -- manager Oliver Marmol may have to find room for the 26-year-old if he keeps hitting well.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Goes deep twice off bench Palacios went 2-for-3 with two solo home runs in Tuesday's 5-2 win over Baltimore.

Impact Entering as a pinch-runner in the second inning for an injured Nolan Gorman, Palacios took advantage of the opportunity, blasting a pair of solo home runs. After going deep just once in his first 150 career at-bats, the 26-year-old outfielder launched homers in back-to-back plate appearances Tuesday. In limited action since getting promoted from the minors Aug. 16, Palacios has posted a slash line of .317/.349/.585 with two doubles, three home runs, eight RBI and one steal across 16 games.

SEPTEMBER 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Batting leadoff Tuesday Palacios is starting in center field and batting leadoff Tuesday against the Padres.

Impact This is the first career leadoff opportunity for Palacios, who has posted an impressive .304/.333/.522 slash line in 24 plate appearances since the Cardinals called him up from Triple-A Memphis on Aug. 17. Tommy Edman is getting the day off.

AUGUST 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Hits bench Monday Palacios is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Padres.

Impact Palacios will hit the bench after he started in center field six of the previous eight games while going 6-for-21 with a home run and five RBI over that stretch. Tommy Edman will patrol center field Monday, but both he and Palacios could see their opportunities in the outfield become more limited in the near future, as Lars Nootbaar (groin) could be a candidate to return from the 10-day injured list as soon as later this week.

AUGUST 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Gets on base four times Palacios went 3-for-4 with a double, a walk and two RBI in Wednesday's 6-4 win over the Pirates.

Impact Palacios has seen regular playing time in center field over the last week, and he's made the most of it, going 7-for-18 with three extra-base hits and six RBI through seven games. The rookie outfielder was recalled from Triple-A Memphis on Aug. 17 after slashing .297/.315/.456 over 40 games following a trade from the Cleveland organization, where he held a .217/.348/.313 slash line over 56 contests with Triple-A Columbus this year. Palacios' hot bat has kept him in the lineup, but the impending returns of Nolan Gorman (back) and Lars Nootbaar (abdomen) could cause enough of a lineup shuffle to send him to the bench in the near future.

AUGUST 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Serving as primary center fielder Palacios will start in center field and bat seventh in Wednesday's game against the Pirates.

Impact Palacios will crack the lineup for the fourth time in five games after going 3-for-9 with a home run and three RBI over his previous three contests. The 26-year-old's run as St. Louis' primary center fielder will mostly likely be short-lived, as Lars Nootbaar (abdomen) appears on track to return from the 10-day injured list Sunday when first eligible or shortly thereafter.

Recalled from Memphis St. Louis recalled Palacios from Triple-A Memphis on Thursday.

Impact Palacios was acquired from the Guardians two months ago in exchange for cash considerations and had since registered an .876 OPS with five homers and three steals in 40 games with Memphis. The 25-year-old will step in as the Cardinals' fourth outfielder with Dylan Carlson (ankle/oblique) needing at least a couple more weeks of rest and rehab.

AUGUST 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Traded to St. Louis Palacios was traded to the Cardinals in exchange for cash considerations Friday.

Impact After Palacios was designated for assignment by the Guardians on Sunday, the 26-year-old was dealt to St. Louis. The outfielder will report to Triple-A Memphis, while he replaces Tyler O'Neill (back) on the 40-man roster after O'Neill was transferred to the 60-day injured list Friday. Palacios has yet to appear in a major-league contest this season, posting a .217 average with three homers, 28 RBI, 41 runs and six stolen bases over 217 at-bats in 56 games with Triple-A Columbus.
