Palacios is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports. Palacios seemed to have taken hold of a strong-side platoon role upon his return from the 60-day injured list Sept. 1, but he's now been out of the lineup for three straight matchups versus right-handed pitchers. The Rays will go with Bob Seymour at first base for the second day in a row.

Palacios is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Blue Jays, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports. The left-handed-hitting Palacios will take a seat for the second day in a row, this time against a right-handed starter (Trey Yesavage) after he was withheld from the starting nine Sunday against lefty Shota Imanaga. Since returning from the 60-day injured list Sept. 1, Palacios has gone 4-for-21 with three walks. That modest level of production may prompt the Rays to view Palacios as more of a part-time option rather than a locked-in strong-side platoon player.

Palacios went 1-for-2 with a solo home run during Tuesday's 5-4 win over the White Sox. Palacios appeared in one game this season before being placed on the 60-day injured list with a knee injury. A hamstring issue extended his stay on the IL, and he was finally activated Sept. 1. He hit his first home run of the campaign Tuesday, and he's 2-for-14 (.143) with three strikeouts since being reinstated from the injured list.

Palacios is starting at first base and batting seventh in Tuesday's game versus the White Sox. Palacios made his first professional start at first base Saturday against the Guardians, and he's back at the position Tuesday. It's his third straight start overall against right-handed pitching. The 28-year-old has missed most of this season with myriad injuries, but he could see regular reps versus righties down the stretch.
