Suter is a hold — league-average and stable across the board

His expected ERA is 3.95, a hair under the league average of 4.10, and the sample of 377 batters is past the point where that number becomes reliable. Nothing underneath it is being propped up or dragged down by luck. He allows a 31% hard-hit rate against a league average of 40%, and his expected wOBA allowed of .306 is close to the .315 league mark. He strikes out 20.7% of batters and walks 6.9%, both slightly better than average, with a swinging-strike rate of 11.0% matching league. His expected ERA has been stepping down across the sample, which keeps him from being a sell. There is no instability here to trade against, in either direction. Hold. A 3.86 ERA and 1.29 WHIP at 0 SV is waiver fodder — hold only as deep-league injury filler.
