Josh Palacios Back In The Starting Lineup Tuesday
1 year agoPittsburgh Pirates outfielder Josh Palacios is back in the starting lineup Tuesday against the visiting Texas Rangers and right-hander Nathan Eovaldi. It's Palacios' first start since May 20 as he's appeared in just seven big-league contests this season. The 27-year-old is hitting .267 but is without a home run or a stolen base while his OPS is a meager .580. Palacios raked at Triple-A prior to his big-league promotion, however, with a .434 average, four home runs, three stolen bases, and a 1.274 OPS across 60 trips to the plate. Palacios doesn't have a track record of hitting for power in the minors which leaves his bat off the fantasy radar moving forward.
