Tommy La Stella - Returns to lineup La Stella (Achilles) is starting at second base and leading off in Game 5 of the NLDS against the Dodgers on Thursday, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports. Impact La Stella aggravated an existing Achilles issue in Game 4 and wasn't expected to be in the lineup Thursday. However, he apparently made enough progress during Wednesday's day off to take up his usual role with right-hander Corey Knebel serving as the opener for the Dodgers. Through four postseason games, La Stella has collected 11 hits in 48 at-bats with two RBI and six runs scored.
