It's probably not a trade I would make, but Bothwick does age over Spring Training so he's likely to fall down to about a 90 peak.
omg a career e.r.a. of 4.44 he is a fucking god among men.
Wow, looks like someone got a little too attached to the team he was supposed to look over. Because nothing of what I said suggested I thought Suter was great. His vitals aren't very appealing, so what? I know there's pitchers in this league with better vitals than him who get worse results. Suter has a career 0.75 HR/9 and that's very good.
Again, I don't think this is something I would do, but if I vetoed on that basis I would be vetoing a lot more deals. It's not terrible, Bothwick still has a lot to prove and Suter has been improving his numbers from year to year. If he stays in the low 4's ERA then he's a solid pitcher to have in the rotation.
