Davis will hit seventh and start at first base Thursday in the Orioles' season opener against the Yankees, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Davis has been a mainstay in the heart of the order for most of his tenure with the Orioles but a disastrous 2018 campaign and underwhelming spring training will relegate him to the bottom third of the lineup to kick off 2019. The former star slugger has a clear path to regular at-bats at first base but shouldn't warrant much attention outside of AL-only leagues until he shows notable improvement from his 2018 numbers.
