INF Nomar Garciaparra will play on Friday at Cleveland, according to manager Bob Geren -- and there is a chance he will be in the field, Geren said, either at third or first. Garciaparra, on the DL twice this year with calf problems, has not started a game in the field since May 23.

Garciaparra has yet to re-appear in the starting lineup after serving as the DH on Saturday, though he may be back in the starting lineup on Tuesday according to the team's web site.
Recommendation: It's pretty clear that Nomar's days of being an everyday player are well behind him, and it looks like he'll be an occasional starter at best due to his persistent calf issues.
