Jeff Suppan's run a 4.14 ERA with St. Louis after coming over from Milwaukee, so you could make some argument that he's been a serviceable addition. However, he's an arguably serviceable addition who's going to miss a little time:
Jeff Suppan Goes To Disabled List With Groin Soreness
Cardinals placed RHP Jeff Suppan on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to August 1, with right groin soreness.
Suppan began feeling something in his groin while attempting to run on Monday, one day after his scheduled Sunday start was rained out.
All in all, Suppan will hardly miss any time, and with Chris Carpenter, Adam Wainwright, Jaime Garcia, and Jake Westbrook manning the rotation's front four, it's unlikely he'll be missed very much. Suppan will be eligible to return on August 16th, and will slide back into the fifth slot, to be used whenever necessary.
