Padres Sign Dave Roberts

The Padres signed outfielder Dave Roberts to a one-year, $2.25M deal, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune. He is expected to be the team's starting left fielder.

Update: Interesting annotation on this one from Rotoworld, but one I find hard to believe: Dave Roberts apparently doesn't have the service time to qualify as a free agent.


Comments:
It's true, Rob -- Roberts has just over 5 years of service time even though he's been in the majors for parts of seven seasons and he's 33 years old. He didn't break into the majors until he was 27 & didn't spend a full season n the roster until 2000, when he was 30.
