Starting lineups: Nats split-squad vs. Cardinals and Marlins

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - The Nationals play their first split-squad games of the spring today, with one team staying home to face the Cardinals while another team makes the short drive up to Jupiter to face the Marlins.

The home game features three notable Grapefruit League debuts: Stephen Strasburg on the mound, Ryan Zimmerman at first base and Pedro Severino behind the plate. Strasburg and Zimmerman's debuts were merely held back because of the long spring; Severino was dealing with a minor injury.

A.J. Cole, meanwhile, makes his second start today; he'll be pitching the road game. Adam Eaton, Stephen Drew, Adam Lind and Clint Robinson are among the notable names playing in that game.
