There's an interesting article on Fangraphs speculating that clubs will keep a Billy Hamilton speedster on their rosters for as long as possible to have available for extra inning situations.  The idea being that you bat him last at the end of the ninth so worst case, he would start the 10th on 2nd.

Also, Zimmerman says he hasn't decided whether or not to play given potential risk to his 3-week old and his mom if he tests positive.

Watch these guys blow it by getting a hit and then getting stranded.  And the Wilson Ramos or someone like that starts the next inning on 2B.
