Orioles Sign Jay Payton

by @ 6:54 pm. Filed under 2007 Orioles

The Orioles signed outfielder Jay Payton to a two year, $9.5 million deal.  Payton had a pretty mediocre year in 2006 and while he’s a career .286 hitter, his career OBP is only .330.  He does make good contact though and he doesn’t strikeout too often.

Payton will fill in at left field.  While I wouldn’t say this is a huge signing, for the money, we could have done worse.
