Suppan's Christmas Present

The Chicago Tribune provides some details of Jeff Suppan's contract:

NL Championship Series MVP Jeff Suppan reached a preliminary agreement Sunday on a four-year, $42 million contract with the Milwaukee Brewers.

Suppan must pass a physical before the deal is finalized, the Brewers said in a rare Christmas Eve announcement. His contract includes a team option for 2011 with a $2 million buyout.

Given the money being thrown about this winter, that's downright reasonable. This gives the Brewers a rotation of Capuano, Sheets, Bush, Vargas and Suppan. How well this staff does depends on the health of Ben Sheets and how much offensive improvement the youngsters show. ERAs in the low fours are fine if you're not near the bottom of the league in runs scored.
