Pasquantino (hamstring) will start at designated hitter and bat third in Thursday's season opener versus the Guardians.
Pasquantino suffered a Grade 1-plus right hamstring strain just five days ago, but he made enough improvement that the Royals are comfortable with him at least playing in a non-defensive role on Opening Day. Cavan Biggio will occupy Pasquantino's usual position at first base.
