Rent-a-Vet: Eric Milton

It's been 10 years since his no hitter, but at 33, Eric Milton is still pitching effectively. The Dodgers are having issues filling in the holes of their rotation that injuries have caused so they sent an ineffective Macdonald down in order to bring up Milton. In the minors, Milton has a 3.00 ERA, 25 stike outs, only 5 walks, in 33 innings. Just last week, he had a no hitter through 5 innings. He won't be his younger self, but he seems to still know how to get people out and miss some bats. He will be sent down once Kuroda is back, but that is not looking to happen for a good month. Dodger stadium is pitcher friendly, Dodgers have good offense (even without Manny), and their division is not the best hitting division. Consider giving him a rent. - Scout Monkey (scout_monkey@gmx.com)
