Not sure about baseball, but when I play soccer, cleats certainly help with traction.
So I'd say yes.

Yes. Depending on the shape and form of the cleats bottoms determines how much or how little traction the shoes will perfom.

Not so much straight speed, but if you're taking more than one base at a time, they help make your arc smaller. More traction equals keeping up your speed better on the turns without crashing.

yes, definitly. They help you maintain traction in wet grass, and through the sand/dirt of the infield.

they help maintain traction and cause quicker stop and start running.
