I see you picked Jeff Suppan. I don’t disagree enough to pick a compelling alternative. Suppan will work.

If we go off xFIP, it’s definitely Suppan…

Oops, meant to say “better than Lilly or Meche”. I have Schmidt on the brain (insert your own joke here).

Well, the name you’re looking for is Suppan. And really in terms of ERA and xFIP he’s not a lot worse than Schmidt and better than Lilly or Schmidt. So relative to the market that would be a deal, even if he’s only a 3 win player.

But I’d gamble on Mulder. Either last year’s HR% and LOB% were a fluke because he was hurt and he could return to star form or he’s done and he’ll retire.

I’d go for Mulder, but considering he probably doesn’t want to play here, I’d bet on Chan Ho Park. Oh, and maybe John Thomson with what’s left. (Yeah, I know, pick ONE guy.)

#136– how old is Beau Amaral these days? He used to do a wicked Randy Johnson when he was about 6….

Mark Mulder

I don’t like any of the remaining options. But Mulder is the only interesting guy who will be available on a one-year deal. If you are going to sign a pitcher in a market that doesn’t have any real good options, go for the short-term deal.

Mulder has some upside too. With a team option for 2008, it makes sense.

Tony Armas Jr. is a distant second.
