I am definitely not sold on Burke being the starting second baseman for next season. Do you think that the Astros should pursue Marcus Giles, and if so, do they have any chance of signing him?

So let me make sure I have this right. You're not sure that Burke can play second base every day, so you'd rather the club go with Giles, who, with his .229 batting average and .304 on-base percentage in '07, pretty much proved that he cannot handle the everyday job? Not sure I'm understanding the logic.
