Orioles' Danny Valencia: Sitting out series finale

Valencia is out of the lineup Sunday against the Rays, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.

One of several Orioles players likely to be available as Tuesday's non-waiver trade deadline approaches, Valencia has boosted his stock with a 10-for-24 showing at the plate coming out of the All-Star break. He'll get a routine rest following three straight starts as Jace Peterson receives a turn at third base.
