Scott Spiezio(Braves):
Scott Spiezio's alcohol-related problems seemingly had driven him out of baseball. But the Braves are willing to give the 35-year-old utilityman at least one more chance.

Dmitri Young(Nationals):
Nationals hitting coach Lenny Harris is considered the best pinch-hitter of all time, and for good reason. During his 18-year career, Harris collected a Major League record 212 pinch-hits.

Jim Edmonds(Padres):
Part of the Padres' reasoning behind putting center fielder Jim Edmonds on the disabled list on Friday was so that he wouldn't unnecessarily push himself to get back quicker from the strained right calf injury he suffered on March 6.

J.D. Drew & Coco Crisp(RedSox):
Red Sox right fielder J.D. Drew is ready to play again, but manager Terry Francona will hold him out of Tuesday's opener in Oakland and save him for the Wednesday afternoon game against Rich Harden.

Mike Lincoln & Kent Mercker(Reds):

Kip Wells(Rockies):
Now, none of that counts. It's as if Francis never took the mound. Righty Kip Wells, who pitched for the Cards last season, will start for the Rockies against righty Kyle Lohse on Tuesday.

Brett Tomko(Royals):
Brett Tomko, the Royals' No. 5 starter, will get started but just a bit late.

Edgar Renteria(Tigers):
The first Tigers player to a see a regular-season pitch this season was not Curtis Granderson. But while Edgar Renteria is a new face in a Tigers uniform, he's far from new in the leadoff spot.
