Jesus, has it really been nearly 9 seasons now since he was here?

Assigned to Triple-A
I prefer him to SOS, Mendoza, and Pucetas… but that could just be nostalgia speaking.
His last decent year was 2007 (2.5 WAR)
He did have a 4.89 FIP in 100 innings last year which could be borderline 5th starter material. Though Mazzaro is the better choice (5.13 FIP, but age 24 and 4.55 xFIP). Still, I’d probably take Suppan over SOS even with the age difference.
Walk off home runs, Jeff Suppan
Its 2000 all over again!!!!

seems like this can only be deemed as an emergency solution
provided that wasn’t Sean O’Sullivan’s role already

It probably upgrades the 8th SP on the depth chart
And I guess that’s what a lot of minor league signings are for.

Maybe he just wants to retire as a Royal
like Mike Sweeney.
Then he can throw out the first pitch next opening day, and Carlos Febles can be on hand to catch it.

Just in case my anger fiestas the Treanor trade
had any effect on his performance thus far, I’m going to go berserk about this one so that he can come up and throw a perfect game soon.

I don't mind it
if Suppan is going to replace Chen or Davies, or stay in the minors until needed. I do mind it if he blocks Mazzaro. Maz needs to pitch in the majors so we can find out if he can throw a 4.50 ERA with a 1.30 WHIP. If so, he is a very useful #4 pitcher. Our young pitchers are all at least a year away, and we are going to need a couple of minimally competent starters until 2013. (Here’s looking at you, Luke.).
