A’s Make Offer To Erstad

MLB.com reports that the A’s have made a one-year offer to 32 year-old first baseman/center fielder Darin Erstad. Oakland needs a solid fourth outfielder for the Jay Payton role, as Milton Bradley and Mark Kotsay are not pictures of health.

RotoWorld reports that the Cubs, Mariners, Rays, and Rockies have interest in Erstad as well.  The OC Register throws the Orioles and Cards in the mix too. The Angels are probably out.
