Availability becomes the immediate concern.

MLB

What happened: ESPN issued a game advisory for Richie Palacios, noting an injury delay in the top of the fifth inning. The score was 0-4 at the time of the advisory.

Why it matters: Any in-game injury stoppage creates immediate roster and availability questions, especially with MLB in the regular season.

By the numbers: Palacios had a prior 2026 injured-list stint for a right ring finger fracture from March 26 to April 17, missing 18 games, according to club game notes surfaced in search. Wire.Report also tracked a separate Palacios injury delay on May 30.

What to watch: Watch for an official status update after the delay and whether Palacios remains in the game. Postgame comments should clarify if additional evaluation is needed.
