Title: Who's on first?

How does Duffy make it over White or even Singleton?

I think because he can play more than one position.

What do you mean "make it over White?" (http://m.astros.mlb.com/news/article/169940586/matt-duffy-makes-astros-opening-day-roster)

Utility infielder Matt Duffy earned the nod, manager A.J. Hinch said Thursday, meaning the Astros will carry 13 position players and 12 pitchers for the first several series. Hinch said he informed Duffy -- who kept the knowledge quiet even in pregame interviews before an exhibition game against Milwaukee -- on the plane ride from Florida on Wednesday night.
Tyler White beat Duffy out for the starting first-base job, but by all accounts, Duffy's spring was solid. While his average dipped, Duffy still posted a .725 OPS with three homers and seven RBIs in 47 spring at-bats.
