Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be starting shortstop in 2023

Palacios has a chance to begin 2023 as the Twins' starting shortstop, opines Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic
ANALYSIS
With Carlos Correa having an opt-out after the season and Royce Lewis suffering an ACL tear, Palacios could be Minnesota's starting shortstop to begin 2023. The 25-year-old is better known for his defensive abilities but has developed more power as he's aged, hitting 19 homers in 110 minor-league games last season. Should Correa opt out, Palacios may be the best internal option while Lewis recovers.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2016
Palacios made his MLB debut with the Twins in 2022, registering a middling .143/.184/.229 slash line with two home runs and six RBI across 30 games. Palacios fits the traditional mold of a soft-hitting middle infielder who brings most of his value with his glove. That can benefit an MLB team, but it doesn't move the needle much for fantasy managers. Palacios was waived after the regular season and claimed by the Tigers, who outrighted him to Triple-A Toledo. The 26-year-old is off the 40-man roster as a result, so he's nothing more than organizational depth at this point, and he will likely spend most of 2023 with the Mud Hens. Palacios may see some playing time in the majors at some point if the team deals with any injuries, but he's not really fantasy-relevant at the moment. Look elsewhere for middle infield production.
Palacios had an impressive first season of professional ball in the U.S. by hitting .370/.398/.540 between two levels of rookie ball. The Venezuelan had showed promise with a .802 OPS in the 2014 Dominican Summer League. His sample size in rookie ball is small at just 57 games, but at just 19 he's a name to keep an eye on over the next year. He's been playing shortstop, but it's not clear if he has the glove to stay there or move to third base.
