Rivas gets a rare start at short: The Sports Xchange notes that Jack Wilson got the night off Thursday against the Pirates, and IF Luis Rivas started in his place, going 1-for-4. It was Rivas' first start at shortstop since June 1. (Updated 07/25/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
Rivas had some nice games in May when Jack Wilson was on the DL, but since Wilson has returned, Rivas is back on the bench as a reserve infielder. Rivas doesn't bring much to the table and remains just a NL-only Fantasy reserve. There is some talk of trading Wilson, though, so it's not a horrible idea to take a flyer on Rivas in larger NL-only play. (Updated 07/25/2008).
