Lohse is a nice #3 that got a really bad rap for getting injured immediately after Mozeliak gave him a stupid contract.
He's actually a lot like Jeff Suppan in that his stuff isn't overpowering, but isn't easy to square up either. Another year removed from career-threatening surgery (and pitching for another contract) and I expect he'll have a very nice year for us.
And for anyone that hasn't been to spring training or watched his FSMW interviews, or even saw his LaRussa impression last season - I'd suggest you give rooting for him a try. He's a damn cool guy and a really easy player to pull for.
Keep an eye on Westbrook as well; with a real defense behind him I expect he'll be much more aggressive and much better this season.
This is a very very good ballclub that could win 95 games this season.
