MILWAUKEE, Dec. 24 (UPI) -- Veteran right-hander Jeff Suppan Sunday signed a four-year deal with the Milwaukee Brewers.
The 31-year-old Suppan was not offered a new contract by St. Louis after he was the MVP in last season's World Series.
He has made at least 31 regular season starts in each of his last eight seasons while pitching an average of 193 innings.
"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 on Milwaukee's Web site. "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."
Suppan has a career record of 106-101 with a 4.60 ERA in 1864 innings.
Last season, he was 12-7 with 69 walks and 104 strikeouts in 190 innings.
