Astros ink Darin Erstad

Cecil Cooper gets to enjoy another fantastic signing by Ed Wade. This time, Wade inked Darin Erstad to a 1-year, $1M deal.

Anyone who thinks that I was serious about this being a fantastic signing is sadly mistaken. Sure, he has a pretty good glove. He cannot hit a lick, however. What did he hit last year? A measly .248 with 4 home runs and 32 RBIs. That's like having Adam Everett in the outfield. I don't quite understand this move. The Astros need starting pitching, not poor-hitting outfielders. Ed Wade, listen to me when I say this....STARTING PITCHING.

Here's a couple Christmas truths for you:

Melvin > Wade
Brewers > Astros
