Prior to Friday night’s series opener against the Houston Astros, the Tampa Bay Rays are expected to select OF Kameron Misner from Triple-A Durham and have placed OF Richie Palacios on the 10-day Injured List.
Misner, 26, came to the Rays in the November 2021 trade that sent Joey Wendle to the Miami Marlins. The Marlins selected Misner 35th overall in the competitive balance round of the 2019 draft. The talented outfielder has four above average tools as he possesses plus raw power, plus speed, plus fielding, and a plus arm in all three positions of the outfield.
