Rays' Richie Palacios: Excluded from starting nine
Richard 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 Tampa Bay Rays to view Palacios as more of a part-time option rather than a locked-in strong-side platoon player.

Rays' Richie Palacios: Returns from 60-day IL
The Tampa Bay Rays activated Richard Palacios (knee/hamstring) from the 60-day injured list Monday.Palacios has been limited to just one game for the Rays this season, first due to a fractured finger and more recently because of knee and hamstring problems. However, the 28-year-old recently played nine rehab games with Triple-A Durham -- going 6-for-33 with two home runs -- and is ready to rejoin the big club.

Rays' Richie Palacios: Kicks off rehab assignment
Richard Palacios (knee/hamstring) resumed a rehab assignment with Triple-A Durham on Tuesday, going 0-for-3 with a strikeout while playing five innings at second base.Palacios has played just one game for the Tampa Bay Rays all season, as he opened the campaign on the shelf while recovering from a right ring finger fracture, and then sprained his right knee in his April 17 debut for Tampa Bay. The 28-year-old had previously started up a rehab assignment June 10 and was shut down with intermittent soreness in the knee, and then began a new assignment July 22 before being shut down again due to right hamstring tightness. The snakebitten Palacios finally looks to be healthy again, but given the length of his absence, he could be in line for an extended stay in the minors to pick up at-bats before being activated from the 60-day injured list. Palacios will likely fill a utility role once he rejoins the Rays.
