Baseball Betting Lines

12/24/2006 - Milwaukee, WI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Milwaukee Brewers bolstered their rotation by coming to terms with free agent Jeff Suppan on a four-year deal with a club option for a fifth season. The contract is pending completion of a physical.

Suppan, the MVP of this year's National League Championship Series, went 12-7 with a 4.12 ERA for the Cardinals in 32 regular season starts. The right- hander was 1-0 with a 0.60 ERA in two games against the New York Mets in the NLCS, as the Cardinals eventually won the World Series.

"With 44 wins in the last three seasons, Jeff is not only a proven winner, he is also one of the most durable pitchers in baseball," Brewers general manager Doug Melvin said. "This agreement makes us feel very good about the depth of our rotation. Jeff's experience and durability should have a positive influence on our entire pitching staff."

The 31-year-old Suppan has made at least 31 regular-season starts in each of his last eight seasons and averaged 193 innings pitched in that time. He owns a career record of 106-101 with a 4.60 ERA in 317 games (301 starts), having also pitched for Boston (1995-97, 2003), Arizona (1998), Kansas City (1998-2002) and Pittsburgh (2003).

Suppan will join a Brewers starting rotation that includes lefty Chris Capuano, and right-handers Ben Sheets, Dave Bush and Claudio Vargas.
