Assuming you are playing modern-era OOTP and that you don't have a crying need for something else (like a C) that Baird can get you, I'd work Baird at 2B and use him as a backup on the ML roster. I don't have much luck in modern OOTP with contact/gap guys with no eye and not much speed. And if you are playing with injuries anywhere but very low, he can be the first IF out of the gate when you have an injury. I play with injuries at "very low" and even I HIGHLY value good players with options as depth, rather than the old retreads that have to be waived every time you want to send them back down. If they're so bad no one claims them, you shouldn't be giving them plate appearances in the majors except in a short-term emergency.
