He batted a career-best .355 with the Los Angeles Angels in 2000 -- a silver slugger year -- but hit just .248 with four homers and 32 RBIs in 87 games with the Chicago White Sox last season.

Here's an amusing rumor from the Astros Locker : "If the Yankees were to give up righty pitchers Alan Horne, Ross Ohlendorf , catcher Jesus Montero and outfielder Jose Tabata the Astros would have to consider trading them Roy Oswalt and Darin Erstad . Oswalt would fill a huge hole in the Yankees’ rotation and Darin Erstad would give them some value off the bench in the outfield." Four prime prospects for Roy Oswalt : NL ERA 5.04 (converts to about 6.00 when adjusting to AL lineups, WHIP 1.447.) and creaky Darin Erstad . Who could pass that up? Besides, now that the Yank's ...

If you give an average team multiple chances to beat you, they will. If you give the New York Yankees multiple chances to beat you, they definitely will. The New York Yankees took advantage of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim leaving a small village (16 to be exact) on base and some more bad defense to beat the Angels 4-3 in 13 innings to take a 2-0 lead in their best-of-seven series.
