It seems to me there is a big difference in the areas that the rule says are the pervue of umpire judgment (the fundamental nature of the game and significant risk to the safety of players) between a coach in a wheelchair and an infielder in a wheelchair. The OP was musing about an infielder, F3, in his "what if".

How could F3 in a wheelchair NOT be a safety hazard on a pick off attempt?

Most of these posts sound like a player in a wheel chair is going to be able to play at a level of any player.

There are some amazing wheelchair athletes, but there is no way a wheelchair athlete can compete with able body teams.

Is F3 going to just hang by 1B waiting for a pick off play? Even if she would, am I the only one who is going to see OBS on every pick off play?
