Bill Hall, Astros Reportedly Agree to Deal

Filed under: , , , ,

The Astros reportedly have agreed to a one-year deal with the versatile Bill Hall, bringing him back to the familiar turf of the NL Central.

Hall will make about $3 million under the terms of the contract, which includes a mutual option for 2012 and is pending a physical, according to FoxSports.com. He'll be Houston's regular second baseman, sliding into a position he hasn't played as much as others during his career. Based on Hall's track record, though, it shouldn't be much of an adjustment.

He has played every position except catcher and first base during his big league career, which had been spent entirely with the Brewers until he was dealt to Seattle in August 2009 and signed with the Red Sox last year as a free agent. Hall has made 129 starts at second base in his career, trailing shortstop (247) and third base (217) but just ahead of center field (125) for the consummate super-utilityman.
