The Rays will start the season without Gavin Lux, who is on the 10-day injured list due to a right shoulder impingement, with Richie Palacios taking his place on the Opening Day roster. Lux struggled with injuries during spring training, playing only seven games and hitting .190. Both Lux and shortstop Taylor Walls (also injured) leave the middle infield vulnerable, prompting the possibility of adding depth as the season begins. The team may explore options to bolster this area, given their recent trades and acquisitions.
