Cards overpay for Lohse

With Chris Carpenter’s return next year the matter of a lot of speculation, Mulder out the door, and not a lot in the starting pitcher cupboard in the minor leagues, the Redbirds offered a touch more than $10 mil a year on a four-year contract to a pitcher who had has first sub-4.00 ERA season ever this year.

Even in the years of his early promise and his only two previous 10-win seasons, his ERA was still pretty high.
