Rays activate 2B/OF Richie Palacios from injured list

The Tampa Bay Rays activated infielder/outfielder Richie Palacios from the 10-day injured list on Monday.

Palacios last appeared for the Rays on July 31 before landing on the shelf with a hyperextended right knee.

He is batting .233 with five homers, 21 RBIs and 19 steals in 88 games in his first season with the Rays.

Palacios, 27, has made double-digit starts at second base (26), right field (25) and left field (15) this year.

Tampa Bay optioned infielder Austin Shenton to the spring training complex in a corresponding transaction.
