White Sox's Joshua Palacios: Cracks leadoff homer
Palacios went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's extra-inning loss to the Athletics.
Palacios opened the game's scoring with his first career leadoff homer, slugging it 400 feet off starter Osvaldo Bido. The 29-year-old outfielder has lately been the strong side of a platoon with veteran Michael Taylor since Mike Tauchman (hamstring) is on the injured list. Overall, Palacios is now slashing .222/.317/.306 with four runs scored and three RBI over 41 plate appearances since being called up April 10.

White Sox's Joshua Palacios: Getting another look as leadoff man
Palacios will start in right field and bat leadoff in Thursday's game against the Twins.
Palacios will occupy the leadoff spot for the second game in a row and appears to have at least temporarily supplanted Nick Maton as the White Sox's preferred table-setter versus right-handed pitching. The 29-year-old likely doesn't have much of a leash atop the batting order, however, as he enters Thursday's game with a meager .200/.310/.200 slash line across 29 plate appearances with the big club this season.

White Sox's Joshua Palacios: Sitting versus righty

White Sox's Joshua Palacios: Settling into strong-side platoon
Palacios went 1-for-3 with a run scored Sunday against the Red Sox.
Palacios was recalled April 10 to replace Mike Tauchman (hamstring) on the roster. The White Sox have faced a right-handed starter only six times across 10 games since, though Palacios has been in the lineup each of the last five times. He's gone only 3-for-19 since being recalled, but he may have the chance to maintain the role until Tauchman can return.

White Sox's Joshua Palacios: Receives call-up to majors
The White Sox selected Palacios' contract from Triple-A Charlotte on Thursday.
The addition of Palacios helps restore some depth to the Chicago outfield after Mike Tauchman (hamstring) was placed on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. Andrew Benintendi (adductor) also went on the IL a day earlier, leaving both of Chicago's corner-outfield spots in flux at the moment. The White Sox will likely mix and match at both spots while Benintendi and Tauchman are on the shelf, with Palacios, Austin Slater, Brooks Baldwin, Michael Taylor and Greg Jones all being candidates to see playing time at either outfield position. The 29-year-old Palacios owns a career .230/.286/.364 slash line with 12 home runs and seven steals over 433 plate appearances across parts of four seasons in the big leagues with Toronto, Washington and Pittsburgh.

Pirates' Joshua Palacios: Clears waivers
Palacios cleared waivers Saturday and was outrighted to Triple-A Indianapolis, Noah Hiles of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Palacios lost his place on the 40-man roster after going 4-for-19 in the Grapefruit League. He'll stay put in the Pirates' farm system after passing through waivers unclaimed and should play regularly at Indianapolis, where he turned in an .867 OPS across 209 plate appearances in 2024.

Pirates' Joshua Palacios: Removed from 40-man roster
Palacios was designated for assignment Saturday, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.
He was in the mix as a starting outfielder in Pittsburgh entering spring training, but the signing of Tommy Pham hurt Palacios' standing on the roster. He also didn't help his chances by hitting .211 with no extra-base hits across 19 Grapefruit League at-bats.

Pirates' Joshua Palacios: Starting rehab assignment
Palacios (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment Thursday at Triple-A Indianapolis, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.
Palacios has been shelved for the last week with a left hamstring strain. Because his absence has been brief, he would seem to have a chance at being activated from the 10-day injured list when first eligible Aug. 10. Palacios had been seeing regular reps in right field against right-handers before getting injured, but he could return as a backup following the Pirates' acquisition of Bryan De La Cruz ahead of the trade deadline.

The Pirates placed Palacios on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a left hamstring strain, Noah Hiles of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Palacios made an early exit from Monday's game versus the Astros due to a hamstring injury, and it will now officially force him to miss at least the first portion of August.
