I see it as being influenced by a couple of things:

1) they want to demonstrate to fans that they believe in this guy that they just overpaid for, and

2) the Avs operate on a pretty tight financial budget. If they can get a backup for cheap, they are going to jump all over it. If Berra is willing to sign for 3 years, then great - lock him up!
