SARASOTA, Fla. - Orioles manager Brandon Hyde is kicking off the first exhibition game this afternoon by sitting some of the regulars.

First baseman Chris Davis, infielder Jonathan Villar and left fielder Trey Mancini are out of the lineup. Mancini said he knew in advance and is playing Sunday against the Blue Jays.

The same must be true of Davis and Villar.

Stevie Wilkerson gets the start at first base, Eric Young Jr. in left field, Rule 5 pick Richie Martin at shortstop and Jace Peterson at second base.

Cedric Mullins is leading off and Chance Sisco is catching and batting fourth.

Mark Trumbo is held out of the lineup while continuing his recovery from knee surgery.
