Boston Red Sox manager Terry Francona said OF Rocco Baldelli will hit leadoff on days when he replaces OF Jacoby Ellsbury in the lineup, so as not to disrupt the rest of the batting order, according to Adam Kilgore of The Boston Globe.

Our instinct:  Baldelli is likely to get a few at bats other places as well, don’t expect them to rest Ellsbury too often.
