Brian McTaggart of the Houston Chronicle gave me his 2 cents on the Astros signing Darin Erstad.
Baseball-Rumors: I like the signing of Darin Erstad, he gives you another veteran on the ballclub and one that brings Gold Gloves in both the outfield and infield. Will he be a full time outfielder or will he also get playing time at 1st?
Brian McTaggart: Well, he'll be a backup and play both. The OF is set with Lee in left, Bourn in center and Pence in right. Loretta, Blum, Ausmus and Erstad give the Astros a pretty good bench.

The Houston Astros inked yet another veteran to their ballclub, signing free agent outfielder Darin Erstad to a 1-year deal plus incentives.
With Erstad only being 33, I think he's definetely got something left in the tank. He also brings 2 Gold Gloves in both the outfield (2000, 2002) and infield (2004) as a 1st baseman.
